Tougher Stuff
People often realize
they can endure more
than they thought they could
when enduring becomes the only option.
But sometimes-
when people can't endure-
they break.
break a little,
or break a lot.
Never judge someone
on their breaking point;
anything can break
if you put enough pressure on it.
And not all of us were made
with the tougher stuff
