I learned to fight. How I fight? Be good with words. Diplomacy.
  Duck Aim for weak spots if I must. Be the fastest runner. Served
  me well in 3rd, 4th, 5th grade. Beyond 5th grade, fights were
  infrequency beyond a 7th grade event where I was pushed in a
  circle of middle schoolers along with another kid. 1/2 chanted
  my name. 1/2 chanted the other guy's name,. I gave him the
  bloody nose. Neither one of us wanted to fight but we did
  anyway. He got suspended. I didn't. 20 years later at a party,
  he was drunk and cried on my shoulder about that day,
  apologizing. All this time, he blamed himself. Of course I
  forgave him - I never blamed him in the first place.
