WOW! Josh, I had no idea. To say that my jaw has just dropped with respect and admiration would be an understatement. People talk and talk but when it comes to actually stepping up they are no where to be found. I know at times I've rubbed you the wrong way and you let me know it. And you tore me a few during my Pandae induce meltdowns. It never bother me because there always something about you I liked and, like the rest of us, we have our personal demons.
TA, who has never been in a fight in his life, and will never be in a fight, because he leaves such barbaric pursuits to others not realizing that it's those very fighters that allow him to pick berries and bake muffins with the lovely Jeezebelle
in safety, had started this thread in hopes of humiliating you. Maybe some see someone falling in battle as a disgrace. Not me. When a man steps up, win or lose, I see someone with heart and courage.
RESPECT.
"For thou must know that it is not always the defense that a man weareth upon his body that bringeth him success, but more often it is the spirit that uplifteth him unto his undertakings. For it needs not that a man shall wear armor for to be a true knight, but only that he shall do his best endeavor, with all patience and humility, as it hath been ordained by God for him to do."
--- Sir Pellius, Knight of the Round table, to the maiden Parcenet prior to his epic battle with Sir Engamore in the defense of the honor of Queen Guinevere.
