Come Out Swinging

Ever been backed so far into the corner by so many people at once that you had no choice but to come out swinging? No choice but to take a little ground back? Fight them off? Beat them back? Keep what's yours? Defend what they're trying to take? Trying to plunder? Trying to extinguish? Yeah, me, too. Yesterday in fact. And although I won't go so far as to say the deal went down exactly like I would have wanted, I can say it felt good not backing up anymore than I already had. And it felt giving a little while taking it. And when the dust cleared, no one was dead, no one was wounded, no one was left laying. That's why it's so good to have a home to retreat to until you have to battle again.
