lemon filling

the real world- key west

the scene: Taylor is running a marathon somewhere down in Key West, Florida. at the 29th mile he is crouched on the ground. his knee has given way but his mind is screaming for him to go on. he gets up and with the motivational support from three people who were before that time virtual strangers he goes on and finishes the marathon. he doesn't win or anything (at least i didn't think he did) but he finished the marathon.

now, what is all that? well first of all i'd like to point out that i have no idea what the real world reality series is about and i am open to someone poitning out what it's all about.

the lesson behind that? that it doesn't matter whether we come in first or last in a race. it's the effort and the heart that we put into getting from the starting point to the end that matters most. and that it doesn't hurt when we get support long the way, be it from the ones who we love and knows us well, perfect strangers or even our worst enemy. that support and motivation whether directly or indirectly, gives us that extra push and kick that we need to complete that one extra mile when everything seems impossible. so remember it's the journey and not the begining or end.

it's the lemon filling that the meringue covers
