Life is a journey, not a destination

Learn this phrase from Jojo bizarre adventure Vento Aureo (Golden wind) series. just before the hero Leone Abbacchio die, he met his dead colleague that die because of him. in the illusion (or heaven?) he saw his dead colleague worked very hard in a crime scene (scanning every single piece of shattered glasses for finger print), he asked the colleague why his work so hard even he might just wasted his effort. the dead colleague told him, as long as he has the passion to pursue true, he'll find the criminal one day, because life's a journey not a destination, if u see life is a destination u'll start taking shortcut and ignore the journey the real meaning of life.

I was so shocked, this is a simple words but so meaningful, like if an investor only want to earn money out of a product, mostly he won't care about the product itself, but taking shortcut to imitate the most popular brand of the product. this happened everywhere nowadays.

I like this phrase so much, it could be because it gives me reason to continue my current hardship to create my own game engine instead of compromise my game idea and use existing solution. anyway let's enjoy this journey, shall we?
