Pushing further

Human beings can accomplish great things. We have explored the globe, from the heights to the depths. The danger merely inspires the daring.

A sense of adventure can turn into vainglory. Be wary when expecting others to see what you have done. Let the achievement be its own reward.

None of this is granted, though we tend to take it that way. There is a price that must be paid. Breakthroughs often leave the broken behind.

The ones who come after benefit the most. They will enjoy the fruits of another's labor. It is indeed shameful if they do not even show their gratitude.

It is not just anyone that can beat the odds. Those who determine to succeed will sometimes fail. The one burden they will not have to carry is regret.

We cannot deny our limitations, but they can be tested. We do not really know how far we can go. But there will always be those who push further.

    1. Some limitations can be overcome, while others cannot. Since we do not know, we can only keep pushing further. We will be amazed at what can be accomplished.

    1. Legacies are for those who cannot get enough attention. People remember whatever they will. Be consistent and you will have no regrets.
