&ldquo;You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You&#039;re on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who&#039;ll decide where to go...&rdquo; <br /> ― Dr. Seuss, Oh, the Places You&#039;ll Go!

It's sure to have dents,
Fortified, guarding those who
Fight against its foes.

Something does not become strong by itself, nor will it immediately be strong. Strength comes with experience, wisdom, and community.
