One girl thought it was best left to poetry, but to me it's about changing your perspective about everyday objects. One thing I thought of was if a mountain moved (to use the old saying) where would it go and why? Anyways, about your personalities idea, I wonder if Mt. Everest was personified what would it be like? I imagine a weary old man who was sad for all the people trying to climb him. Of course, this could be influenced by the fact that I just read Into Thin Air. I think my view of Mt. Everest would be very different if I hadn't just read it.
