“The brick walls are there for a reason. They are not there to keep us out. They are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something.”
— Randy Pausch
Simplified Meaning:
Obstacles in life are like brick walls. They aren’t meant to block us completely, but to test how much we desire something. If we really want something, we will find a way to overcome or go around these obstacles. For example, think about someone wanting to get their dream job. They might face rejections and challenges along the way. If they persist, keep applying, improving their skills, and never give up, they show just how determined they are. These "walls" actually help us prove our dedication and resilience.
