Adrenaline, Expedition, Enlightenment

When you[crossed-out character] strike out on the expedition up the mou- ntain for the peak of enl- ightenment, you're going to have many pitfalls lay- ing in wait along the way: literal pits...well, meta- phorical ones of depression laziness, fear. You will reach a rarefied place whe- re the air is thinner, whe- re your body will revolt & gasp and try to fool you with the false avalanche rush of adrenaline to doubl- e your vision [crossed-out characters]and pride and sway you from reaching the top--but be calm, be humble, be patient, and you willfind your peace at the top.
