He had failed greater than he ever thought he could, yet the simple fact that he put himself out there, to the furthest extent one can imagine, is reason enough to march forward. Towards an uncertain destiny, upon an unpassable mountain, and beyond the darkest horizon. The crash and burn of today, just marks the first of many still to come. But as she has foretold, he is now strong enough to endure and wise enough to know when to keep pushing on and when it's time to admit defeat. Because only when he is cut down, can he rise, can he rebuild himself into the person he always dreamt of being. There shall be heartache and agony and fear, but there will also be times of joy, of triumph and of pride. All of that will be his life and his life alone.
