Climbing (Jan. 18)

It seems that most of life is spent trying to achive something. That something may be different for every person but there is a simple truth that remains the same for everyone. The climb to achieve what you are striving for will almost certainly never be enough. Often we hear stories of people who accomplish something and then what? Do they just stop trying to accomplish something? Indeed they do not. Now perhaps someone may have made it big in business and they set out to retire and do something. Perhaps that something is merely enjoying life but it is still a climb to achive just that. Perhaps we focus too much on the goal or even the next goal and forget to enjoy the climb itself. Perhaps it isn't so much about the goal as much as it is about the path to it.
