Have you ever played that game where you run around to avoid getting hit by paint? Well, can you imagine running around, trying to find a place to sit for a while and relax without getting tagged, and then suddenly you find yourself cornered. You are standing on wet earth with a cliff ahead and only one way out of this predicament (which you've already passed and don't want to pass again). And then you get hit, out of the blue, not really knowing where most of the hits came from, surprised at the quickness of it all and how the contact actually hurt, and you are drenched in paint. And you are dirty, shocked, out of sorts, and very disappointed. Disappointed that you didn't prepare better when you already had an idea about what was coming. Disappointed that some hits came from nowhere, from seemingly unimportant players, but were just as devastating. And disappointed that, after all that, you don't know what to do with your dirty, shocked, disconcerted self.
Have you ever played that game?

I haven't played that game but I know very well what you are talking about. The feeling of being cornered is something that anyone would avoid at all costs. Then again, when you find yourself in that situation, you just might be surprised at how you deal with it. Just like the wolf that is cornered, you just might find it in yourself to give it your all and fight your way to survival...
fight!
