To each his own Godot

I am no student of philosophy neither do I have what it takes to decipher the classics. I do not know what or who Godot is. Samuel Beckett on being asked if by Godot he meant god, replied that had he so intended he would have made it evident.I sure believe that to each his own Godot. So who is your Godot, who is the one worth waiting for, but who you know ( from the play) will never come or more dramatically, never arrive. 
For some it would be Avijit Roy and Barun Biswas, who will never return home, and yet we know they will have to return..again and again, by some other name perhaps. For some it would be 'Holud Pakhi', the bird which will never return and yet we reminisce it through songs.. 
My Godot is an abstraction called justice.
