Key Word: Need

"She was fearless. She needed to be."

This quote expresses such a simple truth that so many do not seem to understand. When you need to be something, you somehow find the strength to be whatever that is. When you need to do something, you somehow find the strength to do it. Because, you see, in "need" there is no "but," there is just "do." I learned to be a lot of things - first and foremost, strong - for no deeper reason than because I needed to be. There is no real choice or decision. Situations present themselves and you have to rise to the occasion. It doesn't matter whether you want to or not, or if it's unpleasant. When you need to do something, there are no choices.
