Well, I think everyone else pretty much outlined it for me.
I do loathe weakness though. Of course, setting aside the folks born in a specific way as to render them such, accident cases, etc -- I mean the normal folks out there in everyday life who do not make final decisions and stick with it, who do not stand up when the situation calls for someone to do so, the ones who do not speak when something must be said, those who will not uphold a moral cause or something they believe in, and the ones who will not (rather than 'can not', those that 'can not' should be defended) fight when a fight is upon them.
I've failed often enough that I won't hold myself as a shining example to mankind, but at least I strive, and it has cost me some things along the way. At least I sleep better, and my friends are the ones that share the same moral imperatives. I try to encourage and support others to do the same as well. Everyone has it in them to some degree, so it is time to embrace it.
