I'll see where things go. Regardless of how chaotic or bad things may be there's always the realization that I'll still live and maybe with that I can eventually solve my situation. If not? Well, I'll eventually be dead and with that I suppose this realization has helped me to find some reprieve in the event I do fail beyond reproach.
No matter how much you lose there is always retreat until a situation or life finally stops you from sneaking away and forces you into a final stand. Retreat is not a horrible thing, and can in fact be helpful for as long as you can do it. Always better to live to fight another day and fight to die when you cannot retreat any further, eh right?
Your mind and your life are your only two genuine tools that always stick with you, and with those you can always build in some way, shape, or form.
