The question is...

The troll asks
"What as large as a mountain but as small as a ?
The Answer is...

Which reminds me of a fellow they called Abe who wandered about talking to people, reading copious amounts of literature and studying human nature in general.

Anyway as the story goes he mastered decifering folks through non-verbal communication, reading body language, discerning voice inflection and analyzing word choice to name but a few.

People thought him an unattractive, lanky and odd looking fellow. He also mumbled to himself quite often.

Countless times he'd repeat this montra
" I will be prepared and my time will come".

I suppose that's why people thought him odd;
He suffered from severe headaches along with bouts of depression.
Anyway, he was able to read people real well and had a gift for gab.

His favorite story was the legend of the keeper. It seems there's this fork in the road guarded by a keeper.

He won't let you pass unless you ask the right question first.

People listening to the tale would jump in to correct the storyteller saying " you mean he had to answer the question to pass.
Ol' Abe, he'd hold firm shaking his head saying let me finish.

That was Abe, congenial yet firm and confident. Knowing people as he did, the interruption always came at the same point in the story.

Abe would nonchalantly say "the question is the answer".

At this point he'd have people scratching their heads with a dazed look on their face.

Right on cue his compassion would shine through;
as he explained the meaning to ensure his message was understood.

The guardian of the fork can be either from the Land of Truth or the Land of Lies.

The proper question asked is the path to the Land of the Truth.

Someone would always repeat the querry.
" What question can the traveler ask to reveal the road to the Land of the truth?

Abe would just nod. Invariably the last words would be Really? Honest Abe...

Problems...When there yours they're as a big as a mountain.

..When there someone elses they're as small as a mole hill. gjf
