Up the stairs- feeling the platform rock. Ropes quivering, clips clinking. One foot gently in front of the other. Swaying in the breeze, I walk across the rope. Feel the ropes sway. Stop. One foot gently in front of the other again. Feeling wind- urging myself forward. Feel a sway as someone walks behind me. A rush of excitement. My feet on the platform reaching carefully- stepping over. Clink, clink. I can move on. I step on a rope- swaying. Now for the next. Stepping- Swaying- Wobbling- Continuing. Back and forth. Stepping up. The platform, firm and solid beneath my feet. One solid beam. Going forward. Wobbling- Bouncing. Reaching up. Stepping forward. Click, click. Clack, clack. Forward. Continue. Bounce. Rock. Sway. I feel it all as I walk across the beam. Platform again. Clink, clank. Grabbing on. Going down. Wind rushing around me swinging and swaying down the zipline. Hanging, dangling, going down- Standing up. Confidence surrounding me. I did it.
