On June 2, 2022, for my very close friend Justin Lee Howell's bachelor party we went on a hike. We were in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. The name of the trail we took is called Rainbow Falls Trail. #rainbowfallstrail We were told this trial was only 2.6 miles, and it is one of most challenging trails at this national park. #rainbowfalls There are no words on earth to describe just how worn out, fatigued, weary, tired, and overwhelmed I was. I just wanted to quit going uphill on that trail. We were not even halfway on the trail, when I had it in my mind to just turn back around and quit. #gatlinburg But let me tell you something, "The moment when you want to quit, is the moment when you need to keep pushing." #gatlinburgtennessee I saw the most purest, beautiful and clearest water I have ever seen, all around this waterfall, at the very pinnacle of this whole entire trail. #gatlinburgtn The journey was more than worth it, even though my flesh wanted to turn around so bad. #waterfalls The point of the story: don't give up until you see what you have been waiting for. Make your journey, the suffering, pain, and struggle all worth it. It won't be worth it if you just give up, give in and go back to the mediocre you just came from. #chasingwaterfalls PS: Going down this trail was easy-peasy. Takeaway: "It's easier to go down a hill than up it, but the view is much better at the top." #greatsmokymountainsnationalpark 🔥YouTube/podcast,👉🏾"Uplift Past Crossroads"👈🏾🔥 FB/LinkedIn = Sean Christopher Jenkins 🔥Follow👉🏾@troubledontlast 👈🏾IG/Twitter/Snap/TikTok for more🔥 Post Notification - Like - Comment - Share - Save ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ . .
