Fightback!!!

We are a fighting species(pun intended). We fight, fight and fight. Everyone is a victim and thus wants to victimize who he/she can. The taxi driver, the rickshaw driver, anyone you can afford to mess with.
I just wandered into that thought. My objective of writing this is not to criticize our times and the people inhabiting these times. My objective is to underline the power of fighting back.
Our hospitals, our sporting grounds, our existence and our repeated successes and the stories of repeated failures before the sweet success echo the power of fighting
back.
A wise man once said that corn and iron civilized man and ruined his humanity. As society developed man naturally became competitive as he needed to compete to survive. Competition is good. It frustrates but also builds characters and makes us fight back.
The power is an awesome one to possess. It reminds me of those weird toys which no matter how hard you hit would not go down. It would keep coming back up. They have a low center of gravity. Even we humans have a low center of gravity; its just mental. lol!!!!
I have fought back in 3 months. I have fought back with some pain in the wrist and a scar and the occasional swelling but I have fought back.
Life expectancies all over the world have risen. It is primarily because of better medical facilities, higher incomes etc, etc but have we not evolved to become mentally tougher?
Our daily lives pose some serious challenges and overcoming them frustrates us but also increases endurance. We keep fighting back.
So keep up the spirits and live your life and even if you go down, go down FIGHTING!!
