Survival is a state of mind.
The toys we gather, the techniques we study and scenarios we understand are not a reflection of weakness and fear but rather of our foresight and willingness to face and overcome real danger.
Preparedness often means that situations are averted and go unrecorded. However some situations are unavoidable and the danger is real. The better we are prepared the more that the risk is discounted and the impact of adversity mitigated.
We are better able to enjoy life and stretch our boundaries rather than sit in a comfort zone, too afraid to find what lies over the mountain. To them we have unnecessary toys but unknown is how much more we have lived life.
