The message he wants to pass on to his readers through this novel is that, when life is dragging you backward with difficulties, it's the warmup time before going to launch you into something great. It's like an arrow that is pulled backward before it pulls you upward and goes beyond your expectations. Life may look ugly at some point of time but have the patience to wait till God is done with you fully.
