1,911 miles of track had been laid when workers of the Central Pacific Railroad met those of the Union Pacific Railroad at Promontory Summit, Utah Territory on May 10, 1869. With the driving of the last spike travel across North America was reduced from six months to just about one week.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

En verklig bedrift s\u00e5klart. H\u00e4r har vi en h\u00e4ndelse som f\u00f6rr\u00e4ndrar allt. Men det \u00e4r bara den d\u00e4r sista spiken som inneb\u00e4r appl\u00e5der, fotografering och tjohej. Men \u00e5tskilliga andra spikar har slagits in i or\u00e4cknerliga syllar efter den 300 mil l\u00e5nga str\u00e4ckan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00c4r den h\u00e4r sista spiken mer v\u00e4rd \u00e4n alla de andra? Man kan ju l\u00e4tt tro det efter allt st\u00e5hej som f\u00f6ljer p\u00e5 dess ihamrande.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fast t\u00e4nker man s\u00e5 inser man s\u00e5klart att alla spikar, varenda en som slagits i efter de d\u00e4r 300 milen j\u00e4rnv\u00e4g, de som slogs i utan efterf\u00f6ljande fest och hurrarrop, har samma v\u00e4rde som den sist islagna. Utan dom inget f\u00e4rdigst\u00e4llande. Ingen j\u00e4rnv\u00e4g. Den f\u00f6rst islagna och lagda syllen \u00e4r lika stor del av den f\u00e4rdiga j\u00e4rnv\u00e4gen som den sista.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ja och nog kan man \u00f6verf\u00f6ra det h\u00e4r till m\u00e4nniskor ocks\u00e5. Stora bedrifter som fotograferas och firas. En m\u00e4nniska som oftast utses till hj\u00e4lte och f\u00e5r kungariket, flickan och alla pengarna. Men precis som j\u00e4rnv\u00e4gen s\u00e5klart s\u00e5 finns det en historia f\u00f6re det d\u00e4r avslutet, hj\u00e4lte\u00f6gonblicket. Syllar och spikar i m\u00e4ngder i form av m\u00e4nniskor som g\u00f6r sin sak och som hj\u00e4lten inte skulle existera utan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Newton, skrev n\u00e5gonstans att hans arbete var byggt p\u00e5 giganters axlar f\u00f6r att hylla de som gick f\u00f6re honom. V\u00e4rldens hj\u00e4ltar, symbolerna f\u00f6r alla oss vanliga och v\u00e5r str\u00e4van, m\u00e5ste i varje sekund minnas vilka som bar dem dit de \u00e4r i segerns \u00f6gonblick. Folket byggde landet, vi, de vanliga, som inte n\u00e4mns i tidningar och p\u00e5 tv och radio n\u00e4r vi f\u00f6ds och d\u00f6r. Varenda en av oss en del av det stora. Det \u00e4r ocks\u00e5 det som g\u00f6r varenda en av oss till en stor och v\u00e4rdefull varelse, oavsett hur sm\u00e5 vi k\u00e4nner oss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inga ryggar beh\u00f6ver kr\u00f6kas. Inga hattar lyftas av. Vi \u00e4r alla samma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ps<\/strong> Och i alla, i alla projekt, de som kostar tid och pengar och som andra med emfas s\u00e4ger \u00e4r om\u00f6jliga, finns det personer som tror att det visst g\u00e5r att g\u00f6ra, och som skrider till verket och g\u00f6r det. Som ser den d\u00e4r sista spiken bli inslagen l\u00e5ngt innan den f\u00f6rsta ens \u00e4r smidd. ds<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
