Your enemy, I am not. Why then, do you antagonise me?
Would you appreciate it if you were hated for doing your job? For being a mechanic or nurse? A doctor or teacher? A sales assistant? An entrepreneur?
It is just a single maneuver. No replacement. No do over. For in my profession, there isn't chance to rehearse. Others of their lives, I do not rob.
For a part of this, I never wanted to be. So, in the meanwhile, cherish the life, the heartbeat and breath you still have got.
