My dad was a tough dude, on his own when he was 17 and he never let anyone intimidate him. The lessons he learned he passed on to me, though I'm nowhere near the man he was. But he taught me how to survive, how to get back up when life kicks the crap out of you and since I only learn things the hard way, I've had the crap kicked out of me plenty! So this illness we all share either breaks us or makes us stronger. We know ourselves better than anyone else, so if anyone wants to fk with us, they''re gonna be sorry.
