Hiking and climbing mountains inspired me into this life philosophy - LIFE IS A MOUNTAIN. Every step you make leads to summit. You may be forced to turn around or change routes for any cause, never know. But, stay focused and look forward. The mountain will be there always. Pace yourself and reach "your" summit, for every step counts. Enjoy the view and feed your soul as it comes along. Life is a journey, not a destination. Life is like climbing a mountain.....
Beautiful and peaceful! Lavender flowers are so purple along the lake shore of Kawaguchiko which is one of Mt. Fuji's five surrounding lakes(Fujigoko/Fuji Five Lakes Region).
It's breathtaking to see the lavender plants in full bloom looking like a purple velvet rolled out one after another. Several varieties of lavender are planted in Oishi Park as part of Kawaguchiko Herb Festival. The festival goes on from late June to early July.
