Once upon a time there was an errant knight who travelled 
the world in search of love and good fortune. Many times 
he found love, and many times he lost it as easily as he 
found it. At those times, the conflicted feelings within 
him caused him to lose touch with his reality, and he 
did things he later regretted. Some years later, after 
he made a vow to change, these things started to catch 
up with him. But since they were long past - the knight 
decided to go on with his life and pursuit of love and 
happiness.  One day, a concerned fellow asked him why he 
continued to put himself out there so people could 
continue to throw sticks and stones at him, to which 
the knight replied ...


If I continue to run -
they will hunt me down and bury me alive.

If I stand and face them, and show them my clean hands -

all they can do is -
kill me ...
