Mountains should be climbed with as little effort as possible and without desire. The reality of your own nature should determine the speed. If you become restless, speed up. If you become winded, slow down. You climb the mountain in an equilibrium between restlessness and exhaustion. Then, when you__e no longer thinking ahead, each footstep isn__ just a means to an end but a unique event in itself. This leaf has jagged edges. This rock looks loose. From this place the snow is less visible, even though closer. These are things you should notice anyway. To live only for some future goal is shallow. It__ the sides of the mountain which sustain life, not the top. Here__ where things grow.But of course, without the top you can__ have any sides. It__ the top that defines the sides. So on we go__e have a long way__o hurry__ust one step after the next__ith a little Chautauqua for entertainment -- .Mental reflection is so much more interesting than TV it__ a shame more people don__ switch over to it. They probably think what they hear is unimportant but it never is.
