[verse]
my father always says that a man should be able to stand up for himself and his family. and if someone hurts or beats you, you should hit back. of course, dad is right that a man should be able to protect himself. i love to work out. every day i am exercising on the horizontal bar and even schwarzenegger can be jealous of my muscles. at the school arm wrestling compet-tion, i defeated everyone. actually, this was a surprise for those who considered me a wimp. i’m not really a wimp. but if it comes to the point when i have to do this, i will not be able to hit anyone. especially if it seems to me that my rival is stronger or more experienced in fighting than me. this has already happened in my life before and i was really worried about such situations. but i do not want to fight. how should people like me protect themselves?
and i decided that if i am not ready to fight, i must know how to prevent it and learn how to get away from it. i’ve read that there is a martial art commonly known as aikido. it was created not to attack, but to effectively avoid a blow. i trained to fight back with words. to do this, i came up with the phrases that i could use to get away from the conflict. i also cultivated inner strength and confidence in myself. and this confidence soon came in handy for me
once i was studying outdoors when a high school student approached me. he was known to everybody as a tough guy who creates conflicts out of the blue. no! he is even three times stronger than me! and here we are, i am his next target for mockery and the potential victim. based on how he looked, one could immediately understand that he was searching for a reason to start a conflict. at first, he found fault with my clothes, then began to openly insult me, provoking me to fight
at this time, the yard was full of people. one of them was jane, a girl i liked. i could not lose my face in front of her
having pulled myself together, i did my best to keep calm. even when a high school student swore and spat at me, i was like a cool iceberg of calmness. in the situation when you are provoked, the most important thing is to maintain composure. i stopped studying, walked up to a high school student and said loudly, so that all the others could hear:
— only weak people behave like you do now because they want to -ssert themselves at the expense of others. but you are not weak, aren’t you?
the senior pupil was taken aback
— me? no
— are you strong?
— me? yes
— and if you are a strong person, then you do not need to -ssert yourself at my expense, which means that you will leave me alone and will not interfere with my studies
the high school student was not ready for this turn of events. continuing a conflict was the same as admitting that he was weak. he had nothing to do but to say that i heard him wrong. i remember how jane looked at me and smiled. it was a nice feeling! i had the sense of victory without a single blow. the right words helped me many times
i’ve realized that being physically strong is important. but inner power is more essential. it makes you understand that you can defend yourself. if you are strong inside, you begin to think in a sober manner, so that you never react to the provocations of someone who is trying to fight with you
avoiding conflict is the method of self-defense that i possess. and trust me, fighting back with the word is much cooler than with the fist
