Yeah! You don't ever turn your back on a bear, or a cougar for that
matter. You face them and slowly walk away backwards, increasing your
stride as you go...even if they give you a hint of a chase, stand your

Joy lives in the fight, in the attempt, in the suffering involved, not in
the victory itself.
