They say that life is a gift. But, watching some people, more and more often it seems that they were given a gift, but they forgot to attach the instructions for use to it. So they are rushing about now, trying to understand what happiness is for and what to do with it - where to apply themselves.
They rush about until they pass along the thin blade of death. And here the most interesting thing begins: a desire to live awakens in a person. He madly and all-consumingly wants to live in order to try everything, to savor every moment given by God. Fortunately, most people initially have a love affair with life. Therefore, for them, at the moment of danger, the colors only sharpen.
The will to live is the main motivation
One way or another, but one thing is invariable - when a person looks in the face of death, an acute desire wakes up in him to overcome it. By the way, according to statistics, most often it is the subtle connoisseurs of the play called "Life" who find themselves in extreme conditions. They do not even allow the thought of such a turn of events in their head. But … they get to its very epicenter, getting lost in the forest, suddenly finding itself in a raging river element or experiencing an unbearable thirst in the heat of the sands of the endless desert. A person tries to survive in the cold and in an earthquake, in an avalanche that fell from the mountains, in the mountains themselves - where an extremely difficult test of strength, skills and perseverance takes place.
