A Christian

Obviously it's much easier to say you're a Christian than to actually act like one. At the top of the shining mountain is union with Christ.

Sitting at the foot of the mountain, you're comfortable. You don't even have to look up.

But some are challenged by the climb. The rocks slip under their feet. The progress is slow. Looking back and looking up is confounding.

The reward at the top is crucifixion.

Still, even small mountains and small crucifixions are worth the effort.
