There Is No One To Put In Place (But You)

there is no one to put in place

but you

there is no one to put in place but you,

putting others in place is a distraction from putting yourself in place

from climbing the mountain yourself

there’s no one to put in place

there are those before you on the mountain and those behind you,

you can grab those above you by their leg and pull them down and gain nothing,

you can kick those below you in their face and throw them lower and gain nothing

all this nonsense is obviously a distraction

distraction from climbing the mountain yourself

and you know, this one found an easier way to get to a certain altitude,

and this one had wind in his face,

so what?

in the grand scheme of things — the only constant is the climb

wherever you are — there’s some more climbing to do,

and wherever you are — to stop climbing is to do yourself a great disfavour,

because there is nothing else but the climb

there is nothing else but living

there is nothing else but change and action and growth and climb

to cease the climb is to cease the life is to die

if you’re not so fond of someone’s company — go find yourself a better place, higher up the mountain

there’s no one to put in place,

everyone is exactly where they belong

and there’s nothing to put in place either,

just find a different place higher up the mountain,

…

please relax

do what you can do and don’t worry about nothing else,

you don’t like this and that about your life and about this world? don’t change it! change yourself. change your life. Find yourself a new place

FOCUS ON WHAT YOU CAN DO,

FOCUS ON YOURSELF

FOCUS ON THE CLIMB,

and don’t waste a second distracting yourself with what’s around you
