In the frozen wastes of Antarctica the only thing lacking was the Sun... which was found in excess only in the Sahara Desert.
In the heat and aridity of the Sahara the only thing lacking was... an Oasis which was found in excess only in the Amazon rain-forests.
Immersed in the Amazon Oasis the only thing lacking was the Summit... which was found in excess only in the Himalayan Mountains. Now that I've reached the highest summit in the Himalayas I see that you can't dream of anything higher than this...
On the Summit the security and serenity are so soothing and undisturbed that I could literally die of Loneliness... So for that reason.. since I want to live the only solution is descent..
