How long does it take a garden snail to grow that big??? I found this fella chewing junk mail from the letter boxes at the bottom of my apartment. And this snail is very big. The shell is about 12cm long! Normally, i see many of these snails crushed along pathways. even those very small ones are usually crushed and yucky-looking. But just how did this fella manage to grow till this size without suffering the same fate as it's unlucky peers? It's simply amazing. And how big can it grow???
I wonder if this thought applies to our everyday lives... So many people out there. Even before they ever make their mark, they fall and fail miserably. But somewhere, somehow, some people just manage to surpass their peers and make it to the top. The climb up the ladder very high. They excel in everything they do. And many other people will just be left wondering how long it took to reach the top of the ladder...
