It conveys a moral about perseverance and the unpredictability of life, emphasizing that one should not give up in the face of adversity.
- “His friends and colleagues, after hearing this story, always thought he hit his head on the wall too hard or that it was a really weird lie to create and then brag about. However, Mihai stuck by his first few words: this quest was not just created but was completely genetic and coded into his DNA by some strange and unknown omnipresence.”
- “Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
