goal of this blog . . .

i have been thinking a lot about what will be the purpose and content of this blog. i have decided that i want it to be a chronicle of my experience in totality. so not just about the physical experiences, but also the mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of my being during this hike. i am a very spiritual person, so don't be surprised if my posts tend in this direction. the bottom line is that i want the sharing of my experience to be healing, motivational, and insightful.
