i'm sorry, but

One night a man had a dream.
He dreamed he was walking along
the beach with the Lord.

Across the dark sky flashed scenes from his life.
For each scene, he noticed
two sets of footprints in the sand,
one beloning to him and the other to the Lord.

When the last scene of his life flashed before him,
he looked back at the footprints in the sand.
He noticed that many times along the path of his life
there was only one set of footprints.
He also noticed that it happened at the
very lowest and saddest times in his life.
This bothered him and he questioned the Lord about it.

"Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you,
you'd walk with me all the way.
But I have noticed that during the most
troublesome times in my life there is
only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why when I needed you most
you would leave me."

The Lord replied "My precious, precious child,
I love you and would never leave you.
During your times of trial and suffereing,
when you see only one set of footprints in the sand,
it was then that I carried you."

and this last one was after i walked up on a fuck off hill up behind the beach and its basically to show the vertigo.

it was fuckin extreme ay. about 100 metres high and an almost straighr drop onto the road...
was pretty extreme when the wind starts blowing from behind you as your crawling back praying for the rocks your holding onto not to come loose.

i love the roads around that area in the waitakere ranges.
My uncle use to live down Anawhata road off the Piha road. He basically had a private beach below where he live, witch was an old railway signal box. No power out there, all he had was a wind turbine and a huge bank of deep cycle cells, As you would know its frickin windy out there.

I kinda liked this one too. Not sure why. Maybe because you know its a beach but the sand is just wrong.

The others are average. Oh and that is one damn steep hill.

"What the fuck, man."
"Hm? Oh, hey man, what's up?"
"Jesus, look at these footprints. I needed you there."
"Dude, no, dude, look--"
"You were walking right next to be up to that point, but when I needed you most? One set of fucking prints in the sand, man."
"No, see, I was... I was carrying you there."
"..."
"Yeah. Carrying you."
"Jesus, don't you think I'd have noticed if you were carrying me?"
"Well..."
"You're a dick, Jesus."
"Okay, yeah, I flaked. Sorry. My bad. It won't happen again. Promise."
"You're high right now, aren't you."
"..."
