It seems to be god's agenda to lay down constant reminders of our insignificance.
Climbing a mountain is not about conquering the peak. Successfully climbing a mountain does not add any value to your being or existence. It is not a competition to prove our mettle. Or to put it simply there cannot be any competition because no matter how hard you try you cannot compete with the majestic pile of rocks and soil which has stood the test of time. These mountains have been a spectator to the beautiful journey of life, death and the survival in between. They have endured since the beginning of time to qualify as a symbol of patience and grace. It is not a competition but it is an attempt to struggle to co-exist with the mountains with grace.
The thrill of climbing a mountain does not come from winning. It comes from being able to survive and to co-exist.
