SCRAMBLE

“It is because of the importance of what is beyond that line that we climb. And the power of importance means that one may, or may not, find the strength to overcome the obstacle. You can find yourself halfway through the challenge with the question in mind without knowing which direction to take and what choice to make. If you are lucky, you find the strength to continue by forgetting the question and postponing the moment of answering. If you get to the top, and then beyond to look back then you are sure you have answered that question well. A question that at that point, you no longer remember…. This bass, if you hadn’t understood, made me work a lot. I don’t know why, but it happened.”
