Contention cured with forgiveness and a clear mind.

[sqweeesh]

As the days passed, [his] mind became numb from the pain.
Pain became frustration.
Frustration became anger.
Anger became confusion.
Confusion became instability.
Instability became rubble.
And from rubble rose a stronger man.
Once again ready to grab hold willingly.
Once again ready to fight.
Once again ready to grin.
Once again ready to look into those eyes and say what he means most.
