nearly getting there

But like the ever receding summit of a hard mountain, the nearer I get to feeling I’m getting somewhere the further there seems to go to get there. Though I don’t seem to lose the hope that I will get there in the end. Where there is I don’t know, it’s just a feeling I have in my bones.

To continue the mountaineering metaphor for a moment, you can’t climb a mountain by standing still, nor is the direct route always the easiest - I know I’ve tried. You just have to keep going, along whatever way presents itself. So I’ll just keep on doing what I’m doing and, like the man who’s just bitten his tongue, you can’t say fairer than that then.
