Stupidity and Honour

More to honour then winning a battle
more to honor then beating the smaller foe
It is something many don't have nor can understand
it is inherit in things we do..
It is facing your foes with honours, win or lose
It is fighting for things you believe in.. Not giving in to pittiness
It is going back for more even when the odds are against you
It is showing the enemy even with your death you are not afraid
Nor will cower from them
it's called character... and something Van showed little with his poem.
He who doesn't understand the value of what is within, knows nothing..
learns nothing.. and lives a life of stupidity
It takes heart...
Battles that are won, are won by the strenght of will, the strength of
the heart.
We can only feel sorry for those that have none
for they will never understand the truth of honour\
they're lives will be lived in a shadow of what could be
Take Heart! Let no man or beast beat your will down..
That is honour, that is what you cannot see
They will never gain the strength to overcome their foes.
