Beginnings always hide themselves in ends. Two months ago I was in the ICU at Park View Hospital, using a walker to get from the hospital bed to the bathroom (which I could barely do). It took three weeks to recover from the rattlesnake bite I got in Eastern Colorado. It’s me you see me dive (with poor form) into the water in this video above. You don’t see the doctors and nurses and physical therapists that got me back to not only walking, but walking 30 mile days. You don’t see the countless people who walked with me in the Midwest and East Coast and helped me crush miles. You don’t see the photo of Don Gately that I kept on the RV. You don’t see the sweet grass and arrowheads and Nabii and the eagle feather bestowed to me by the Dine people when I walked across their sacred land. You don’t see Rowin or CJ who wished me luck on the side of the busy highways. You don’t see @chadwickmouton whose arms I wept in moments before diving (with poor form) into the ocean. You don’t see @downsquarez or @julianroymusic who gave their entire beings into making this mission a success. You don’t see Milo Frank or Adam, some of my best friends who visited me on the walk. You don’t see my mom and my sister or my dad who all supported me. You don’t see Ryan or Duke or Haddock or Holmes. You don’t see the semi-trucks whose side view mirrors brushed my shoulder everyday. You don’t see Big Sean or Drake or John Mayer or Justin Bieber who messaged me throughout the journey to wish me well and kept my spirits high. You don’t see the 30 loved ones on the beach who cried and laughed and held meat the end of The Walk. You don’t see any of that shit. But without all those people, that heavily bearded man doesn’t dive (with poor form) into that ocean. He doesn’t make it there. He doesn’t even come close. I’m humbled and grateful for you all. Let’s be real though, I don’t want to become some fat-old-white-guy who talks about that one time he did something cool a long time ago. Fuck that guy. I don’t want to be him. I will not be him. This is the beginning of the rest of my life. Beginnings always hide themselves in ends. Keep Going.
one of the greatest moments of my life. u see the summit but not the 18 months of literal blood sweat and tears that went into making this a reality. 71 summits in preparation with @drjonkedski ‘s guidance and love made this possible. our local guides @dawa.mountaineer and @dcsherpa who became friends for life. love you guys so much. this changed my life forever. keep going.
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. Keep going, mp

Be very careful what word you put at the end of the sentence “I am…” List of old identities: I am depressed. I am avoidant. I am complicated. I am a bad boyfriend/partner. I am misunderstood. I am tired. I am alone. This doesn’t mean I’m perfect. Quite the contrary. I might have a depressed thought, or a depressed moment, or a depressed mood, but I myself, am not depressed. It is no longer a part of my identity. List of New Identities: I am joy. I am faith. I am love. I am a leader who unlocks the magic potential in myself and others. I am generosity. I am a kid artist who creates moments of transcendence for others. I am patient. I am serene. I am calm. I am grace. I am a spiritual being first. You inherit a “personality” and “identity” for your culture, surroundings, and parents. But now you’re an adult. You can change it. You have that power. You are the creator of your life. Nothing can stop you. You are not the victim of your circumstances. You can be, do, or have anything. You are a miracle in action. You are God hidden in the human form. You are just getting started. Go go go!
Pain → Breakthroughs. I don’t like pain. It’s uncomfortable. But when it shows up in my life, I have learned to use it to propel me instead of crippling me. 1. Feel pain 2. Ask God or your Higher Self “What am I supposed to learn from this?” 3. Go learn it. And your life will never stop expanding to unimaginable places. I love you. Keep going, mp
I practiced meditation and affirmations for ten years before I walked across America. But the difference between knowing you could do something great and actually doing something great is like the difference between a lightning bug and a lightning bolt. Affirmation without Action is a racer with no car. Inspiration isn’t meant to stay inspiration. Take all that inspiration and translate it into action. GO.
You are pure consciousness. You are loving awareness. You are a blessing to the world. You are joy. You are faith. You are love. You are exactly where you are supposed to be. You are divine light hidden in the human form. You are blessed and you are a blessing. Keep going, mp
The first step on the spiritual path, is stepping on the spiritual path.
