Morale is a personal thing, and to know that there are others out there is to learn when you are 13 or 14 that you are not the only one in the world that has THAT kind of dream...

I still go thru the motions, I just don't believe in the efficacy.

Oh? Then why did Tokyo Rose spend so much time trying to demoralize the American troops in WWII?

A steady drumbeat of doom and gloom most certainly does affect the morale of those who are exposed to it. It's insidious, and can even be considered downright evil.

Feel like giving up, or going underground? Keep it to yourself. Those thoughts aren't going to encourage anyone else to stand and fight another day.
