i watch the sunrise almost every morning of my life. all are beautiful, but some are indescribable. take this one for example. i hiked all the way to the top of Mt. Fuji. it’s freezing cold and i have the biggest high altitude headache of my life. i sleep sandwiched between 30 strangers jammed into one small room. my head is throbbing and i have to wake up to use the toilet. i’m stepping on peoples heads, feet, and body parts. it was exactly how my Grandparents described it, but worst. i barely slept so i decided to go outside a little earlier than everyone else. i sit on the top of this magical mountain freezing cold waiting for the golden moment. and when it comes, it suddenly gets warm and my headache is gone! i think about my Grandparents as it felt like we were watching the sunrise together. it was probably the highlight of my life…
now every time i look at Mt. Fuji, i can remember that amazing sunrise with my Grandparents in my heart. it was definitely my happy place…
