A man is walking on the beach with Jesus, but looks back to see only one set of footprints when his life was difficult. He questions Jesus thinking he was abandoned.

Caminante, son tus huellas el camino y nada mas; Caminante, no hay camino, se hace camino al andar. Al andar se hace el camino, y al volver la vista atras se ve la senda que nunca se ha de volver a pisar. Caminante no hay camino sino estelas en la mar.
Antonio Machado
Pilgrim, every step you take is the road ahead of you; Piilgrim, there is no road, but the one you create as you keep on walking. You keep on walking, and, every time you look back, you see the road that you will never walk again. Pilgrim, there are no roads, but trails on the seas.
Antonio Machado
