Do you give the horse his strength? Do you clothe his neck in a flowing mane? Do you make him leap like a locust, striking terror with his proud snorting? He laughs at fear, afraid of nothing and charges into the fray. He does not shy away from the sword. The quiver rattles against his side Along with the flashing spear and shield. In frenzied excitement, he eats up the ground. He cannot stand still when the trumpet sounds.

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunward I’ve climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth Of sun-split clouds, — and done a hundred things You have not dreamed of — wheeled and soared and swung High in the sunlit silence. Hov’ring there, I’ve chased the shouting wind along, and flung My eager craft through footless halls of air . . . Up, up the long, delirious burning blue I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace Where never lark, or ever eagle flew — And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod The high untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand, and touched the face of God. – John Gillespie McGee Jr. Companion Page: High Flight Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/tolivewithhonor To Live With Honor Trailer: Credits: Kristin Kuns Kaleb Bruza Buffer music: Council – “Rust to Gold” Soundtrack: Audioslave – “Show Me How to Live” U2 – “Where the Streets Have No Name”

“It is not the critic who counts. Not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood. Who strives valiantly. Who errs. Who comes short again and again because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who does actually strive to do the deeds. Who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions. Who spends himself in a worthy cause. Who at the best, in the end knows the triumph of high achievement, and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.” -Theodore Roosevelt “Man in the Arena” Companion Page: The Horse in the Arena Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/tolivewithhonor To Live With Honor Trailer: Credits: Kristin Kuns Riley Helton Trinity Pencis Buffer music: Council – “Rust to Gold” Soundtrack: Mannheim Steamroller – “Fanfare for the Common Man” The Cars – “Magic” Garth Brooks – “Standing Outside the Fire”

In the clearing stands a boxer and a fighter by his trade and he carries the reminders of every glove that laid him down or cut him ’til he cried out in his anger and his shame, “I am leaving! I am leaving!” …But the fighter still remains. – “The Boxer”, Simon and Garfunkle Everyone wants to quit. Everyone wants to flee. Fight or flight reflex makes quitting the first and best alternative. Despite the ease of flight, a fighter simply cannot. It just isn’t in his nature.

While horse and hero fell, They that had fought so well Came thro’ the jaws of Death Back from the mouth of Hell – Alfred Lord Tennyson “The Charge of the Light Brigade” Sometimes circumstances issue us orders to attack a fortified artillery battery. You can’t evade it or retreat. So charge… choose to. When you need a hero and one isn’t around, stop looking around.

“Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light.” – Dylan Thomas, “Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night” Death is inevitable. We are what Death leaves behind until it comes for us. Live fierce. This all ends.
