I did n't give up. 
 
 That's what I tell myself. It's what my mom told me when I struggled to pass high school. It's what my dad said when I graduated college with a major in business. It's what my psychiatrist told me to tell myself when I confided in her about my depression. It's what my wife told me to get me to fall asleep. It's what I said to get my job at the company. It's what I did to be promoted. It's how I became a partner in the business. It's what I said to my son to motivate him. It's who I am. 
 
 It's why I was pissed when my mom killed herself. It's what I said to my son when he flunked out of high school. It's what I screamed at my wife when she handed me those papers. It's what I said when three departments went on strike, leaving my company in shambles. It was the warning I gave to all new employees from then on. It's why I wanted to kill my partner for joining our largest competitor when the company headed south. It's what I spoke to my son's grave, after he overdosed on heroin. It's why I'm alive and they are n't. 
 
 **I** did n't give up.
