I consider myself very healthy in the fighting spirit department. My values, my self-respect, and what I think is right play a heavy goal on this.
I found strength originally through exercise. I felt empowered, strong, like I could do anything! After that, every piece of me that I discover about myself makes the fire more intense, more dramatic, and I can't seem to stay down on the ground anymore. Even at my worst, the next day, I'm crawling back for the top again.
If it's something wrong with myself, I look within, and work harder and better and try my best to improve it.. and I'm always discovering flaws, pushing myself, and making myself realize how imperfect I am.
When it's something within others.. I feel like I have to make a decision, and do what I feel is right no matter what to correct or remove myself from the situation (said situation dictating.) I balance all of this seemingly intense energy and thought with lots of meditation, calming exercises (reading, writing, working on projects, etc.) that help me center myself so I don't turn into a huge blaze and catch everything like wildfire.
I didn't realize how fiesty I really was for most of my life. I thought I was incapable, and lackluster.. Ever since I found myself though, I continue to become stronger and centered and everyday I get just a little bit better.
