Suppose for an instant that there is no way to accomplish what it is you desire.
. . .
What then of your dreams? Your aspirations? Your dedicated progress?
To continue your search for a means, that is what shows you really have lost all hope of fulfillment.
Thus, when you finally near the end of your journey, miles below the mountainpeak you had set up for yourself, you will just crumble, knowing only that you failed at what you had set out to achieve.
