Well, that’s just it.  I had no real reason to be in class – most of it I knew, and I was dropping out anyway – but I made myself go. I had a responsibility to be there and so I was.  I owed it to myself, my family and the few peers humble enough to swallow their pride and ask for aid when it was required.  And so I went.

The thing is, I never really had to think about this; it is What Must Be Done and that is the only option, no matter the personal burden it would festoon.  You should see now why it bothers me so when people – any people. Most people – refuse to step up and do What Must Be Done in their own lives own worlds.

[No idea when this was written. Was in my notebook. Might be on here already, not sure.]
