Elevate

Here I am - ..trying to debug my latest and greatest bug .
I think Life and Software have so much in common - we set out to change the world ,
create bugs and then have to fix them ourselves ...sometimes we spend more time fixing them than creating them ..and at other times we know that they exist , but move on anyways ..and like 90% of all glitches ...we are absolutely unware of their existence or impacts until everything crashes .
Then we hope we had a backup and a recent one ..but most of the time there isnt .
So we decide to start all over and the saga continues...

So this false sense of importance has enveloped my life and I am waiting with much anticipation for the apple to fall moment. However in my current state of agony I am sure that when the apple does fall ,I will eat it up and not consider it to be a sign leading to a significant breakthrough .

Then I hear something on the radio and I google it

"On 25 May 2001, at the age of 32, Erik Weihenmayer became the first blind person to reach the top of the highest mountain in the world. A former high-school teacher, he received the ESPN and IDEA prize for his courage in overcoming the limits that his physical condition permitted. Besides Everest, Erik Weihenmayer has climbed the other seven highest mountains in the world, including Aconcagua in Argentina and Kilimanjaro in Tanzania”.

Life has put me in my place again .
I should not complain about having to climb my own mountains .
There aint no mountain high enough.
