I don’t really know, and I can’t force you to do something, but at least when Cabeza De Vaca only brought home three passengers, he was still putting in a lot of effort to bring those three other passengers back. So the next time you have a bad day, think about these people, who haven’t just had a terrible day, but a terrifying three
