"I may not be as strong as I think, but I know many tricks and I have resolution"
Ernest Hemingway "The Old Man and the Sea" (1.139)

When human strength fought against the immense Nature.

There was a huge blackout and every single man went blind, alone, scared because nobody sees nothing.

Armageddon.

Some committed suicide, felt down like burning leaves, some died in tears but some others still resist to vacuum and pain like Sisyphus.

The old man said that's something like spiritual endurance.

Wrinkles, pipes, oceans...how changed seems the world when the physical pain and all the stories end.
