"I never saw a wild thing feel sorry for itself." - D H Lawrence 

I feel a sense of pride in being "wild"; it's gotten me into a lot of doors in life (both bad AND good). Sometimes in the tumult I'll forget I am strong, and it depends where I am emotionally, but more often than not this quote inspires me to be an animal about life, to not get so caught up in my head. Even if an animal has every right to feel sorry for itself, it has to move on; it can and will survive. Like a lone wolf, battered and beaten from a fight returning to the prowl.
