Overcoming my fears

Next it is my turn to go up to the 3-storey high pole and cross the log without any support. Hmmm....

I shouted," Am I on belay?". "Yes!", shouted my teammates. Then I shouted again,"I choose to climb!" My teammates shouted back,"Climb on!". Off I go, climbing the ladder to take my first step on the pole.

So step by step I went up till I reached the horizontal log. Trying to stop my leg from trembling is really a very difficult task. Despite psychoing myself that "I can do it" several times, my legs just get stuck on the log and hindering me from taking my first step on the log.

Aiyah! What the fiak! Just go la....I tell myself. So managed to move my left feet to the front of my right feet. I then slowly move on and on and on........Half the log already, my feet is still trembling, plus the wind that just blows across. Wow! What a task manz!

Finally! one last step! Got it! Wow, it really seems like a life time manz. Okie, it does not end here. The next challenge: Trying to take 2 steps down before you fly down and touch the ground.

Seems like a lifetime again. Finally and finally! I can get to fly down. Of course, with the support from my teammates. "Team! Can I trust you?" They shouted back, "Yes!" With that, I let go and fly down.

Today I have overcome my fears....temporarily. :P
