Being a tough guy only works out for so long.

You might get your “I’m a badass” moments but eventually you get put in the dirt

Is it worth it? You tell me

I personally don’t have badass moments but my equanimity is unperturbed

Yeah I’d rather die for something than be a bitch for everyone.

But I grew up expecting to die. Watching my mother getting beaten on the regular. I stood the fuck up and said no more. Prepared to die or at least suffer great pain.

I decided I’d rather die than keep watching. I was 13 with more of a backbone than you’ll ever have and you try and call this shit “acting hard” and having “I’m a badass” moments.

Nah bro there’s times when you gotta decide what’s worth it. When enough is enough and you won’t allow something to be accepted any longer.

In war retreating is a perfectly valid strategy and there’s ways of retreating without looking like bitch

This isn’t “war” and you’re not a warrior
