Let go of the rope

I recall a ficticious story of a Climber who in his pride went alone to climb a 'claimed' impassable peak. He did reach the top and rejoiced to himself of his accomplishment, but on the way down the mountain in the fading light he slipped and fell a far way in the dark. The rope caught, stopped his fall, and I would think broke his back in the process. When the Climber came again to his sense he realized that it was freezing and pitch black. All he knew was the rope was still around him, his body was freezing, and he was going to die. In his perdicament he cried out to God saying "How can you do this to me, God, after I accomplished this wonderful personal triumph only to now put me in a situation where I'll not be able to tell anyone about it?!"
All the sudden a voice cried out "I didn't put you in this situation you should have brought with you a partner to climb. None the less I can save you, but you need to cut the rope."
The climber was startled that there was an answer but in thinking over the answer 'cut the rope' he rationalized 'No I'd rather hold onto my rope as I can't see the ground from here in this darkness' and so he held on.

The story ends with some hikers going along the bottom trail of the 'impassible' mountain and finding the frozen corpse of a man hanging from a rope 20 feet above the ground.

cool story huh? ok now for the actual let go of the rope link.... it's a different story and it's actually for people who are addicted to Pornagraphy or someone that knows of someone that is, but in all truth you can put ANY mortal problem in place of the word "pornagraphy" here... IE smoking (yes smoking in truth), over eating, afraid to go on dates because of the way you perceive others think about you, etc... http://byubroadcasting.org/secrets/transcript/moody_transcript_2003.htm
