About Many ways to get to the top. But some of them are just too easy, and thus underestimate the value of the difficulties on the way. And the question is: What do we obtain using the easy journey? What more we know, what more we think?

Taking the lift I can be on top of Mt. Pilatus in some minutes. Yes, it is the same peak that I can also reach going the hard way on my feet. And the view from up there will not change just because I choose some particular way to get to the top.

But what do I gain going the easy way with the lift? Does it compare to the moments when I almost spit my lungs out, on the journey on my feet?

A single view of the surroundings on such a difficult trip to the top may be of unthinkable more value than the view from the top itself.

As Lessing said, the search for the truth is of greater pleasure than its possession.

My mind is open for comments.
