In the end, that’s what we are. Our work will be recognized once it is delivered, but the making process, the journey we had to get there, to that sometimes brief and singled-out moment of recognition stays in the dark.

We do appear shiny during that moment, our smile beautiful and our shape top notch, because we achieved our goal, but what we endured in order to do so, only we know.

Sometimes it is hard, sometimes it is harder, but the important thing, is for us to keep on the track and never abandon it.
