THE ARTIFACT
OF THE PATH
Discipline is not a single event.
It is a direction.
This artifact marks your decision to stop
wandering and start walking.
The road is narrow.
The pace is unforgiving.
It exists as proof that you chose the climb
over the comfort of the base camp.
No map.
No shortcuts.
Just the next step, repeated.
Many admire the view.
Few earn the right to see it.
This artifact does not reward your speed.
It records your refusal to stop when
the path became steep.
