The Finish Line - is a metaphor for success in the completion or accomplishment of a good deed, goal, or task. It is based on the concept that life is a journey, but your journey is a personal race, struggle, and the good fight to cross the finish line and receive your reward, medal, degree, decree, policy, process, procedure, or crown. Used In the writings of The RhymistGift and The Consummate Transitioner, based on the Bible scripture 2nd Timothy 4:7 (KJV).
My son crossed the finish line, he graduated from high school. She crossed the finish line in receiving her Master’s Degree. It was an arduous struggle, but Congress got the bill on climate change across the finish line. The only way to cross the finish line (have success) is to keep running your race and do not ever stop or give up!
