Always Climbing
For The Vocal "Not Quite There" Challenge

There is an aim, there is a target, there is a goal, and you keep on moving forward and you know you will get there one day. One day.
You wonder when one day will be.
You keep moving forward and you are always there for others and you help them on their way. You see them ascending, but you always help others who maybe bneed a little help or encouragement.
You give them confidence and you smile as the ascend into the distance.
You are further on that you were yesterday, and you are helped by others, but that summit still seems as far away as it ever was.
But you keep going, sometimes alone, often alone, but sometimes with company.
Sometimes people remark the you will never get there, because you do not conform, and do things differently. Others say you will never make it because you spend too much time helpng others, to the detriment of your personal aims.
Still you keep on doing these things and moving forward because it does give your life meaning and purpose.
Each day you feel nearer, closer to your goal, but still far away, but you can see where you are going.
What is stopping you getting there?
You are easily led from your chosen paths, but in your mind, for good reasons. Those reasons may stop you from reaching your ultimate goal, which lies at the end of the road you are following, but the may help you reach other, possibly more desirable goals.
Maybe one day, you will get there, but today will not be that day. You know that you will still find recompense in the satisfaction of whatever led you away from your chosen path today.
