Achieving a goal...

....is finishing well!!!  After hearing about the beauty of this particular waterfall, my goal this trip was to hike to it no matter how long or difficult.  I would not be deterred.  I knew that what lay in store was worth the tedious effort it would take to get there.  "Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize?  Run in such a way as to get the prize.  Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training.  They do it to get a crown that will not last; but we do it to get a crown that will last forever.  Therefore, I do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do not fight like a man beating the air.  No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize (I Corinthians 9:24-27)."  Do you want to finish well?
