I do the things I do for a different reason--for myself. Not because I blindly dedicate my life to boundless self-sacrifice.
There's a quote I've heard before that I like: "All that is required for evil to triumph in this world is for the good men to do nothing."
I want a better world to live in for myself, and many times, that involves helping others. It means fighting the fights you deem worth fighting and holding your ground when it needs to be held.
After all, when the day is over and passed, there's only one person to look at in the mirror.

You might read this thread...I knew everytime I cranked up a gunship I had a fair chance of not making it home that day. I knew that, and continued to fly 3 1/2 years in VN.
The day we went in to rescue Nick Rowe I was fully prepared not to make it back. No death wish, I was willing to trade my life for one of ours who was being held in a cage!
