Life is so quick that it's all played out at the gates of death, and the value of resolution is that it quickens life.
In "A Soldier of the Great War," Mark Helprin reflects on the fleeting nature of life. He emphasizes how quickly time passes, suggesting that much of our existence unfolds in the face of mortality. This perspective invites readers to consider the profound significance of our choices and actions as we navigate life.
Helprin also highlights the importance of resolution in enhancing life's experiences. By making firm decisions, individuals can instill a sense of purpose and urgency in their lives, ultimately enriching their journey. This notion encourages a proactive approach to living, where one's resolve directly affects the vibrancy and meaningfulness of their time on earth.
