I'm Climbing the Tower for WWF
Tuesday 10th Mar So, in May, I'm going to be climbing the CN Tower to support WWF-Canada. This will be my second climb. It was an interesting experience, that I was not fully prepared for last time. This time I'm taking it a bit more seriously, hitting the gym a little, hitting the stair master, and walking more.And beyond the physical challenge, is the cause that I'm trying to take more seriously too and be actively involved in spreading the word and talking to people about it. Normally, with my somewhat antisocial tendencies, I would put up the main fundraising goal myself, or with the help of a couple people, then quietly just carry on.
But it's not just about hitting the main goal, but seeing if I can push past it. All my life I've done what I can to help build up the people around me, and in turn they've made me better too. I'm a firm believer that peoples strength comes from their communities, whether it's family they're born into, family they make for themselves along the way, or the places they live. Likewise, our place in the world is the same. The stronger and healthier the world is, the stronger and healthier we can be. It's easy to see everything going on in the world today and feel hopeless, but, to paraphrase one of my favourite movies, there's at least one thing worth holding on to, and it's that there is good in this world, and it's worth fighting for.
