Why do we do it?

Why do we do it?
The 3am alarm call
Driving two hours in the dark
And the rain

For a picture?
Why do we do it?

Why do we do it?
Hiking for miles
With a twenty pound pack
On a protesting back

For a picture?
Why do we do it?

Why do we do it?
Freeze in the snow
Shiver in the rain
Roast in the sun

For a picture?
Why do we do it?

Why do we do it?
At one with the landscape
Experiencing the sights
In awe of the Sublime

For a Picture?
Why do we do it?

Why do we do it?
Enjoying the solitude
Embracing the challenges
Living the life

For a picture!
