When tragedy strikes an area, leaders, media, and other people are always talking about how tough the people who were affected the tragedy are during the difficult times. When a wildfire burns a subdivision or a river floods a city, we hear about how heroic the people are in that area and how they will rebuild. For us to say that the people in an area are tough, it must mean that there are people in some other area who are not so tough, or—weaker. Where are these weak people located?
People like to be told they are tough, but are they really tougher than people in other areas, or is it just that all living things do whatever they can to insure their survival and to come back from disaster. People in one area are no tougher than people anywhere—they are just people.
