This is the time.
This is when everyone either pushes through and becomes a champion or when they curl up and hope they survive to the end of the fight. Which will you be? a dying soldier who made a fatal slip and gave up? Or the one who slipped, but then got up and kept fighting?
'Cause that's the difference. Picking yourself up. If you can't get up and keep going then you will lose. Simple as that. Heck, you might still lose! But, going with the soldier analogy:
Dying in a blaze of glory, fighting your hardest, breaking a way for the rest of the army to get though... That's not a loss. That's a win. That's something that will be told of for thousands of years, written of in epics and used as inspiration for struggling men everywhere.
So which will you be? A statistic? Just one of the 7000 wounded?
Or will you be the Hero? The one who lead the charge and helped win the fight?
As for me, I don't know if I 'll "live" per say, but dang it, I'm going to go down fighting.
