    I absolutely love this Walter.

    The title "the climb" could just be about climbing but no it's about bettering oneself possibly because of a breakdown in a relationship or just a breakdown so you feel you have to better yourself and move on an fast - this shows in the first line "when recovering" because when recovering from anything in life a heart ache, an addiction etc we do have to make a massive climb but we have to have the willpower to do it otherwise we could go down hill and fast....
    But yes there sure is a fine line when recovering from any sort of 'failings' a fine line between being better and bitter and the latter should never happen as it says more about us as a person than the person who initially hurt us.

    Glad to see this nominated,
    Take care,
