The real world goes like this: what goes up must come down. The real world is being governed by gravity and other forces. In order to survive and emerge well, one needs to know the rules and regulations that govern the life game. One needs to acknowledge the hand that moves the pawn. Even if you are the mighty queen, it does not mean you would not be sacrificed. There is still a mightier one and there is always a more previous one.

Meandering in the real world is smooth sailing if you are in the dominant wind direction. It becomes harsh when you are the salmon swimming upstream. Yes, you were certain that it is your calling when you started the pilgrimage. Yet, when you see the black bear along the gravity-defying climb, you are bound to doubt. Even so, many will arrive at their destination. Then, they earned their rights to spawn. The cycle continues.
