I wanted to make it through if nothing more than to prove everyone's expectations wrong. I think it's our ability to draw motivation from obscure sources like that that gets us through the tough times.
Good idea. My daughter's father is a boil on the ass of humanity, who has skated through life by being a con artist. He's always gotten away with so much, and he thinks he can just lie his way out of all this too. It does give me the fuel I need to knock him down a peg or five. It's time he gets a wake up call. Everyone he comes in contact with him becomes a victim, and I'm the only person who has stood up to him... ever.
I have to say, he intimidates me because I'm terrified of him. I know I'm better than him, I know I'm smarter than him (he's pretty much illiterate), I just hope that the truth can shine through.
Kicking his ass isn't the main source of my inspiration, but if I manage to do it, it will feel absolutely great.
