“The legend says-”
‘I don’t care what the legend says.’
“But the legend says!”
‘I said I don’t care. This was a waste of time.’
“You can’t give up now. We’re almost there.”
‘I don’t care about the sunk cost. We’ll be dead before we find anything of value.’
“Have a little faith.”
‘I do. It’s what carried me this far but no further.’
“Come on, please, just a little further.”
‘Then go on your own, get lost in your legends and leave me out of it.’
“Suit yourself, but we’ll see who has the last laugh.”
‘Doubt it. I’ll probably never see you again, even if you survive.’
“It’s your loss.”
The two parted ways, and true to one’s word, they never crossed paths again. One indeed had the last laugh, and another never made it home. Alas, it was hard to see who the real winner was. Even the one who succeeded didn’t like the taste of their victory, while the other found a different kind of peace.

A
difference of opinion, a difference of goal. Two paths split and never
cross again. But which passed their goal and which found something else?
Until next time, Read, Comment and Enjoy.
