The poem is a tribute to an athlete who died at a young age. The narrator proposes that it may be better to die young, when you are at the peak of your life, than to die at an old age, when the memory of your achievements has faded.

Although the poem is about an athlete, it targets a general audience. All readers can relate to the idea of young people having moments of glory or achievement. The poem’s theme of the fading memory of accomplishments is also something many readers can understand, even if they have not participated in athletics.

In my opinion it relates to athletes only because it talks about winning victory and then at the end of the poem it explains how you will soon be forgotten by saying "the name died before the man."

pychu [463]

I strongly believe that time spent learning a trade for career development is as valuable as the time invested in a college degree.

I think that the most important thing is the time invested in your dreams, it doesn't matter if it is a college degree or a trade, nor if one takes longer than the other or if one of them will get you more money. Time spent in something you don't like to do, eventually, will be a waste because you will not be happy doing that job and will probably quit sooner or later.

Whether you pick one thing or the other, you must really love it, you have to be passionate about it and, if you do this, it'll be never a waste of time.
