For the avoidance of doubt... Yes... I definitely have an opinion...

Let there be cake
Welcome to my Blog!!

Having an opinion is better than not having a thought of your own.
I have many of both....
Pull up a pew and grab a hot, steaming mug of your choice.

Prompt: Perspective. "The difference between a mountain and a molehill is your perspective."
Al Neuharth. How has your perspective on life changed as you’ve grown older?

***
Molehills don't become mountains. They don't require the same skillset to overcome. Molehills are an annoyance; mountains are something very few people will ever need to climb... That's my perspective.

There isn't a mountain that can't be surmounted if you tackle it right. If you approach it as a mountain and not molehill and treat it with the respect it deserves. It's never the mountains that kills; it's the people that don't understand the environment. And, while mountains can be unforgiving - there aren't any on earth that haven't been conquered.

No one chooses Everest as the first mountain to climb. I don't think they even let amateur climbers anywhere near it. You don't climb when the weather is bad. You don't climb it without the Sherpas or listening to their advice. You pay attention to altitude sickness. Stay at base camp.... You truly want to conquer a metaphorical mountain - do your research, prepare, put your safety first, and perhaps decide if you actually need to go over it to get to the other side.
