Often we are tempted to give up the struggle, be it the practice of meditating or simply the struggle for life. It is good, therefore, to be reminded of what one of the tramps says in Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot: ‘I can’t go on. I must go on. I will go on.’ As Jesus said, ‘No one, having put their hand to the plough and looking back, will enter the kingdom of God.’ We must forge ahead. Commitment is everything.
