Those who know me will understand the sorrow I feel. I will use the analogy of racing a mountain bike on a challenging trail to express this sentiment.
Initially, at the start of the trail, things didn't seem too difficult. The path was smooth with a gentle incline. There were a few individuals standing by the trail, but the cheering was minimal. However, as we reached the three-quarter mark, after encountering numerous arduous hills, many people decided to give up. They felt overwhelmed, exhausted, and disappointed in themselves. Some of them even resorted to mocking and berating those who were still pushing forward but struggling to find the strength to continue. They tried to persuade them to quit, claiming that life is so much better without the discipline and hardship.
Eventually, at the final stretch, numerous individuals gave up, oblivious to the fact that the finish line was just two turns away.
We are incredibly close to reaching our goals and to the finish line. Now is the time to prepare ourselves to push a little bit further. It saddens me to see so many of my friends putting their bikes in the garage and giving up on their journey. I love them, but it is just sad.
