The Mountain

translated from spanish.

To reach across the mountain

You will have to climb the rocks that are your thoughts--

(Sadness or happiness)

You will have to die of thirst in the plains of your memories--

You will have to speak through the loudness of your thoughts--

You will have to look at the dry leaf of your failed loves--

You will have to taste the acidity that are other people's opinions--

You will have to hug your inner child with fervour--

And so you will arrive across the mountain

Where the grass is green.

[John the Baptist]

Like very much the way this offering uses symbolism. I think the mountain stands for life itself, and crossing it means coming to terms with with your own negative thoughts, beliefs and experiences, as well as the unpleasantness the world can at times present. You will have to protect your feeling nature, and that will help you cross the mountain to a place "where the grass is green."
