Looks near but distant indeed

James Larkin Statute, Dublin, Ireland.

Have you ever had a feeling that things look close but still far away in effect? Doctoral research, do trust me, is one of them. Nothing is to be achieved without pursuing. Even though you think you are almost there, just do it harder and get the goal then you can take a rest as long as you want. But, the point is "to get things done" instead of taking a rest. Obviously, there are too many things waiting for us to do after finishing one. Just take appropriate relaxation and get on another task. That is life.

James Larkin was a great guy who supported labour movement in Ireland during late 19th and early 20th century. Of course, his goal was not accomplished by himself, but with a few people who had faith. The thing Larkin did was to stick to his faith and carry it through. That is the only secret. His mind reminds me to keep fighting and concentrating on my work which I was and is still interested in and believe being of help to people. Be hanging tough!!!

Here, I would like to share an old song, "Hanging Tough", with you guys which was composed and performed by New Kids on the Block and released in 1988. Wish you enjoy it and hope you all hanging tough on the things you want or need to get them done.
