This makes a lot of sence and fills in the logical gaps that I've been looking for. In turn it has given my wife comfort and better understanding of why I do what I do. I think I have found deeper meaning in my seemingly endless vertical persuit of self mastery.

It can't help that plenty of climbers are already regularly killing brain cells. :toker:
