Anyone whose goal is 'something higher' must expect someday to suffer vertigo. What is vertigo Fear of falling No, Vertigo is something other than fear of falling.

    кожен, чия мета - «щось вище», повинен сподіватися, що коли-небудь почне вертиго. що таке вертиго страх падіння ні, вертиго - це щось інше, ніж страх падіння. це голос порожнечі внизу нас, який спокушує і виманює нас, це бажання впасти, проти чого, жахнувшись, ми захищаємо себе.

    جس کا مقصد 'کچھ اور بلند' ہوتا ہے اسے کسی دن دشواری کا سامنا کرنا پڑے گا۔ گرنے کے خوف سے کیا ہوا ہے ، گردش گرنے کے خوف کے علاوہ بھی کچھ اور ہے۔ یہ ہمارے نیچے خالی ہونے کی آواز ہے جو ہمیں لالچ اور لالچ دیتی ہے ، گرنے کی خواہش ہے ، جس کے خلاف ، گھبرا کر ہم اپنا دفاع کرتے ہیں۔
