The Hill That Never Ends

Most men are trying to reach the top of something.

They climb the hill of money, power, admiration—

whatever they’ve been told will prove they matter.

It’s steep. Slippery. Exhausting.

And no matter how far they go, the top keeps moving.

There’s no summit.

No solid ground.

Just more to chase.

You don’t arrive.

You just keep climbing, hoping the next stretch will finally feel like enough.

It doesn’t.

The Path of Virtue leads somewhere else.

It’s not another hill.

It’s a mountain.

And the climb is still hard.

But now, the ground holds.

Each step gives something back:

clearer views, steadier footing, real strength.

You don’t just keep moving.

You rise.

This isn’t a call to chase harder.

It’s a call to climb something real.
