After more than a month full of matches, goals, celebrations, disappointments.... we have come to the end and when we get up the next morning we realize nothing has changed for us. We still have the same problems to solve and the same challenges to face. So it is time to come back to the ground and go on with our lives.
It is a neverending circle of life and you keep coming across hurdles to overcome. You never reach the summit. And believe me, if you ever think you have got to the top, it is the moment when you begin the steep slope down. By the way, has the war between Russia and Ukraine ended? or the war in Iran? Are these boiling summer temperatures beginning to go down? Are the fires already extinguished?... THE ANSWER IS NO!!!
