I'm resigned to dying but still fear failing my dependents. Of not being up to task.
I haven't had mil or combat training. I'm not rich. Not strong or fast.
I'm aware of imminent dangers but am inadequate
Like the other guy said, what's your thing? Some of us have mil training but maybe you know how to build a network from spare parts or how to build a generator. Maybe you can hack, or you're an outdoorsman who knows what you can use for food. Being well versed is important. Like the saying goes:
“A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one. "
What is your strength? Everyone has something. You don't have to answer here but whatever it is just try to think how you can use it.
it's always the humble ones who come through when it matters. chin up, chest out. you are our people.
Years ago I ran into a guy that I went to school with. He asked about my time in the military then stated " I would have been Special Forces if I had joined!". Of course he had no clue about the effort required to accomplish that. I asked him " are you good at taking shit?". He replied " I dont take shit from anybody!". I laughed and said " If you want to be Special Forces you take shit every day for a year". he had no comeback.
you wont always be strong. But you can be brave
