I would counsel you and everyone else to heed the words of Adm. James Stockdale on the time he spent as a guest of the Hanoi Hilton:
"This is a very important lesson. You must never confuse faith that you will prevail in the end—which you can never afford to lose—with the discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be."

Good advice from one who has earned my respect. And I can assure you and any others I am not confused and my current reality is matched by the discipline it merits.I will survive -or I will do my utmost to make certain they have have to earn any thing given them.
