"Through hardships to the stars"
That’s probably the phrase that fits him best. I’ve known this guy for a couple of years, and every time life tried to throw him off course, he somehow turned it into fuel. He didn’t freeze or complain - just kept moving, quietly but stubbornly, as if he already knew he’d get there one day.
We met by accident, but it never felt random after that. There’s something steady about him - the kind of person who says something once and actually means it. You can lean on him without second thoughts, and that’s rare these days.
He’s changed a lot along the way - stronger, more grounded, a bit sharper maybe - but he’s still got that same honest spark. I’ve got no doubt he’ll reach whatever goal he’s aiming at. Some people you just know are built for it.
