My temper would perhaps be called resentful. My good opinion once lost, is lost forever.

Reality has become too dangerous.
Madeleine Bunting

But after a decade of war, I think we all recognize we've got to do some nation building here at home, rebuilding our roads, our bridges and especially caring for our Veterans who sacrificed so much for our freedom.

As an individual navigating this reality, you have to make choices to survive. Sometimes you happily work for free if it's something you love and believe in.
