How do you step from the top of a 100 foot pole?

This is a hard one, not only hard in terms of interpreting this topic, but literally stepping from a 100 foot pole is really a challenge!! It is a challenge especially without a ladder.

In terms of mertaphor I can say that in life people work hard to get to the top, okey, some work not really hard but are just lucky. It is said that at some point people get to the top of the 100 foot pole by making others steps which they use to get up to the top.

For me, I do not have a problem with people using others to climb up the pole, but I have a problem with people who when they are up there, forget how they even got there. They forget that they are up there because others have sacrificed to assist them to be up there. Some, on their way up they even kick out those they have used as steps  up there.

Now comes a time when a person has to ' step from the top of a 100 foot pole', so, because he/she has kicked off his/her steps, now yhe/she has to fall hard back to the ground. There is a saying 'what goes up must come down'. So, if one has a tendency of forgetting those who help hin/her up the pole, he/she will wonder how he/she will step from the top of a 100 foot pole.
