She blows into my life like a sandstorm.
Within three minutes she insults me, curses me, and threatens to have me fired for giving her son detention.
I'm so mad I'm about to give her detention . . .
And before I can stop myself I say something I can't take back.
Do I apologize?
Do I back down?
Do I surrender?
Nah.
If the Army taught me anything, it's this:
When you cross a line, there's no turning back.
You just face forward and keep going.
Keep going until you claim what you're fighting for.
Claim it forever.
