Never give up on life

This is regarding the article “Never give up on life” by Shahmeer Asif (YW, November 4). The article discussed the importance of perseverance, emphasising that when you find yourself in a challenging situation, giving up should never be an option.

While many tend to quit when faced with hardships or failures, the key is to persistently try until you reach your destination. Whenever you feel the urge to give up, remember that it often indicates you are just one step away from your goal.
