Defining the intangible.

just-ashe:

There is just something profound about him.
I can’t quite pinpoint it just yet.
But I’ll let you know when it hits me, lol.

As for now, I’m just gonna enjoy the view and not over think it. 

[It’s that quality of warrior ethos that becomes etched into the soul, ingrained in the very fiber of one’s being.

Once one has worn the uniform, it is part of the aura’s energy for eternity.

What you see, that you cannot define, is the resilience of the human spirit as it shines through with the belligerent determination of a sheepdog.

Here is a man whose head is bloody but unbowed.

What you see is #invictus#-R]

Out of the night that covers me,

Black as the pit from pole to pole,

I thank whatever gods may be

For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance,

I have not winced nor cried aloud.

Under the bludgeonings of chance,

My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears

Looms but the Horror of the shade,

And yet the menace of the years

Finds and shall find me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,

How charged with punishments the scroll.

I am the master of my fate,

I am the captain of my soul.

~William Earnest Henley, #Invictus
