First paragraph: Where do I even begin? The beginning would be to hard, I guess. The begin is always the hardest part. I guess you can relate the beginning to long boarding, somehow. To go down a hill or slope, you need to get up it first. You tell yourself you want to get up to the top, just so you can feel accomplished. You start to feel like, if you got up to the top, you completed a life long goal, and you feel like you can do anything. Climb any mountain, or get over any guy, anything. All you want to do is feel the adrenaline rush you get when you are traveling so fast everything around you blurs, and nothing is spinning around I. Your head but happy thoughts. But you can't go down a hill you haven't climbed up yet.
