Every day you may make progress.

Every step may be fruitful. Yet

there will stretch out before you

an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending,

ever-improving path. You know you

will never get to the end of the journey.

But this, so far from discouraging,

only adds to the joy and the glory of the climb.
