Dear Addy
that is a good analogy.
the thing is, i've seen so many people, others, walk on, pebbles, with pebbles and even sharp rocks in their shoes...
i am ashamed that my pebble stops me from climbing the mountain... even from just moving towards the mountain.
and that is why sometimes sometimes i try to muddle forward all the same, fall flat on my face, and feel ashamed for falling.
but when i stop, i feel ashamed of stopping, for a pebble in my shoe.
