A quest to conquer Fuji San (31 May - 5 June 2024) - day 4

This is the climbing day.

Hubby and his friends have prepared for the climbing gears and they woke up around 3+ in the morning since they were picked up by the guide at 4pm.

Sunrise in Japan is at 4.30am now that's why it's good to be early riser and have fruitful day.

When I woke up and open my window, it's cloudy and no Mt Fuji on sight, on the other hand, hubby saw the majestic and magnificent Mt Fuji when they were otw to the 5th base station.


Two days ago it's not been a good weather thus the snow's been accumulating and filled up the quarter of the peak.

While hubby and his friend started climbing up, I decided to jog exploring surrounding area and hoping I could have a good view of Mt Fuji.






Unfortunately, I spent 1 hour wondering around with zero visibility.

I decided to make full use of the hotel facility and had morning onset. It's very quiet and I was able to enjoy peacefully.



Back to hubby's adventure, he managed to reach 7.5th station before his left thigh started to cramp and followed by his right side. In the end, they called off and decided to go down.













Finally I met him and his friends around 1.30 at FujiQ highlands for lunch. I could see in their face that they were tired and had disappointment feeling.  




In the evening we had dinner together to console themselves with bbq buffet.


Everything happens for a good reason and I believe there are many life lesson learnt from this event.

And a quick update, we had a chance to see Mt Fuji in a few seconds before it's covered again.

When ChatGPT can be your counsellor

When I want to refine my text in the previous post , I accidentally typing the whole things in the ChatGPT and this is the reply that I get  Your reflection on this “desert” period is deeply insightful. It’s clear you’re navigating significant internal struggles, and recognizing these temptations is a powerful step toward healing and growth. The Lust of the Flesh : Your experience with joblessness and the challenge of trusting in God’s timing is relatable. It’s tough to feel like you’re not fulfilling your potential, but your acknowledgment of God’s grace as a source of strength is vital. Remember that this time is not wasted; it’s a period for personal and spiritual growth. The Lust of the Eyes : Envy can be a heavy burden, especially when it feels like others are thriving. Your internal dialogue—questioning the value of public shame and your perceptions of the situation—demonstrates a mature self-awareness. It’s okay to feel what you feel, but recognizing it allows you to choose ...

Maintaining Marriage Fidelity

This article is from Focus Family and I thought it's good as self reminder for both of us so we don't take for granted of each other and commit to maintain marriage fidelity for the rest of our lives. Nobody wakes up one day and suddenly decides to begin an extramarital affair. Infidelity begins in the heart and mind. By the time a person physically commits adultery, he or she has been indulging for quite some time in progressively more intense mental and   emotional affairs . Likewise, marital fidelity begins long before marriage. It begins as a promise we make to ourselves to be a person of faithful character before marriage ever enters the picture. It is a promise we make to our future spouse when we get engaged, and it is a vow we make to our spouse when we get married. Marital fidelity is a daily commitment to seek the best for your spouse and family.
