Mere Moments Away

''Almost... almost... aaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllllllllllmoooooooooooost...''

Look at all the progress you made. I'm so proud of you! Now you're just Mere Moments Away from completing your goal! It'd be a shame if something interrupted you from doing it...

Mere Moments Away refers to just that: when a person is just a few seconds away from doing something. But there is usually something that prevents them from actually succeeding, something like someone else yelling "Don't Do It!", an Abrupt Interruption, or a Change Of Heart.
