1. On May 17th, he left his last post updated online. He stated that he would take oxygen bottles just in case he "went bananas" and he realized he's not "Superman". His guide radio to base that he was acting abnormal and he recommended that he turn around and he recommended that he take oxygen. Unfortunately Joseph adamantly refused to turn around and also refused to take oxygen. He abandoned his own plan and later fell to his death 60 ft from above. What lessons can we learn from Joseph's life? 1. Follow your dreams 2. When the signs on the road towards your dream reads Warning: Bridge Out Ahead! STOP!! And Abort Mission! Remember: Ecclesiastes 9:4 (KJV)
   For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion.
   Ecclesiastes 7:17 (KJV) Be not over much wicked, neither be thou foolish: why shouldest thou die before thy time?

7. And sad thing is , they won't bring down his body. He is frozen on Everest over 28,000ft just like over 340 others who died there, they are used as landmarks etc since retrieving bodies from up there is risky and way too expensive because of the deadly weather among other factors. The family might never see him again or give him a decent funeral. By now the snow has buried him 😢😢
