We often focus on the road ahead, forgetting to look back at how far we have come.
Throughout life, we encounter mountains we once thought impossible to climb and valleys we couldn't imagine finding our way out of. Yet somehow, we made it through.
In The Mountains We Have Crossed, Yuki pauses to reflect on the journey so far. Not only on the challenges overcome, but also on the lessons and experiences gathered along the way.
Sometimes, looking back reminds us of something we tend to forget: we have already found our way through moments when we couldn't see a way forward.
And perhaps, by reflecting on the journey we have taken, we can learn more about ourselves than we realise.
