Gritty
They don’t care what anything thinks about them
They are a determined bunch
Tough exterior, tough interior
Made of toughness, not too sweet but strong
Give a task it will be completed
They survive because of survival of the fittest,
By far the fittest of them all
Nobody can defeat them
They are similar and yet not even close
Grit, determination, and toughness
An attitude that it can be done without taking any short cuts
No matter the task at hand
