Did the deciduous leaves of the tree feel defeated by the wind?
Did the person who prepared for years climbing the highest mountain feel invincible when they found the top of the mountain was shrouded in dark clouds?
Will a young man who is denied his application will say that love is not there?
Does the dry season have to maintain its power to avoid being replaced by the rainy season?
Does the grass have to resist being eaten by the deer who then become lion prey?
That's the cycle of nature. There is no defeat or victory.
There is only MOVEMENT.
Do not despair during difficult times.
Do not fall asleep in the moment of victory.
