How Many Times Can You Go Fishing Anyway?

Watching the Netflix movie SNIPER:  ULTIMATE KILL, the sniper asked his senior: I THOUGHT YOU RETIRED BUT suddenly, he was back in the thick of operations.  How Many Times Can You Go Fishing Anyway?  The retired ex-general then blurted out:  I WANNA GIVE MY ONE LAST GO.  Obviously that was something that was like 'too good to be true'.  BUT hearing the retired general blurt out still with that air of gung-ho and confidence, the sniper was motivated NO less, hearing it straight from the horse's mouth!!!

Very obviously, there is NO formula here, NO barometer that can measure HOW far can we go, HOW long can we drive more, HOW much mileage can our gas tank still accommodate down the road.  Having said this, the onus remains within each of our own selves, to listen to our own selves, to identify and recognize our inherent limitations [call it 'handicaps'] because that will dictate things as well.  This explains WHY we come across 'weak-hearted' folks WHO can't imagine themselves failing, only to realize that till today, they got stuck up through the years💧💧💧

Through the years, I've seen first hand, people WHO have pushed themselves way too far, way beyond their capability at that point in time, people WHO 'fell flat' and very much bruised 'black and blue' as an aftermath, yet they endeavored to keep alive their flickering hopes alive to no avail.  At the other end of the spectrum, I've seen and witnessed folks WHO were lazier than the laziest spoiled dog sleeping right on the velvet plush sofa.  And at that point, I felt one too many things got wasted, like lost opportunities, lost hopes, lost chances.  Twice OR thrice, I did counsel some of these folks WHOM I know well inside-out personally.  As I knew it that some of them were hopelessly clutching on the last straws, I thought I should give it my shot, where ever it may take once I do take my chances.  At the end of the day, the final score of the game heavily hinges on us, on you, on the very person💥💥💥

WHAT IF we over-stretch ourselves?  Especially if we'll declare that there's NOTHING TO LOSE?  This one-liner from American Poet T.S. Eliot is far-reaching:  ONLY THOSE WHO WILL RISK GOING TOO FAR CAN POSSIBLY FIND OUT HOW FAR ONE CAN GO.  Thing is, let us NOT dilly-dally as to HOW much and HOW far can we go.  And WHAT's the risk if you squeeze yourself high and dry?  Nothing, Nada, Keilner👎👎👎

Our takeaway:  One thing I learned and witnessed in life is the value and importance of each moment.  WHEN you find an opportunity to go farther, GO.  WHEN you can tap into your reservoir of unused energy, GO.  WHEN you think you can push yourself farther down without any serious risk OR peril on your well-being, GO.  WHY do we egg you to give it a GO?  As the old cliche goes, OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS ONLY ONCE.  And if I may add:  The next time it knocks, it's NOT as impactful as it was then😔😔😔
