Muchas veces hacer lo correcto no es lo más fácil. Ni lo más cómodo. A veces toca mantener una postura aunque no guste, aunque otros no lo entiendan o aunque eso te deje solo por un tiempo. Esta frase de Juana de Arco lo resume bastante bien: “Defiende lo que es correcto, incluso si eso significa estar solo”. La montaña te recuerda algo parecido. Hay tramos que tienes que hacer por ti mismo, confiando en tus pasos y en lo que sabes. Al final, quedarse tranquilo con uno mismo vale mucho más que seguir al resto solo por encajar.
Video de la subida a la Silla del Papa, con música de Boz Scaggs "Sierra"
Hoy tocaba un poco de montaña en el Parque Natural del Estrecho. Dos horas de caminata, desde Bolonia, hasta el milenario yacimiento arqueológico de La Silla del Papa. Desde los vértices geodésicos, vistas de Zahara, Atlanterra, Tarifa, Vejer y África. Una maravilla. Fotos: Lumix L10 Leica Vario 14-50mm, Samsung S6 Edge+
"Sierra"
What about the one who said he loved you
What about the one who said he cared
Don't bother trying to find him
Way up in the icy air
Oh you played with his heartstrings
And you played without a care
But not up in the High Sierra
You won't play his heart out there
The angels lay their clouds across his sky
They line up for him every night
Some have wings and others sing
The rest do lazy ballets in the air
There he's got a bird to give him warning
And he's got a lookout too
The beauty of the High Sierra
And she's looking out for you
The angels lay their clouds across his sky
They line up for him every night
Some have wings and others sing
The rest do lazy ballets in the air
What about the one who said he loved you
What about the one who said he cared
He's up in the High Sierra
But don't bother looking there
