People's 'will' to be strong... Is truely amazing.

DanielChristensen · 46-50, M
Death closes all, but something 'ere the end, some work of noble note, may yet be done. Not unbecoming men that strove with gods. The lights begin to twinkle from the rocks. The long day wanes, the slow moon climbs, the deep moans round with many voices. Come, my friends, tis not too late to seek a newer world. Push off and sitting well in order, smite the sounding furrows, for my purpose holds to sail beyond the sunset and the baths of all the western stars until I die. It may be that the gulfs will wash us down. It may be we shall touch the Happy Isles and see the great Achilles, whom we knew. Though much is taken, much abides and though we are not now that strength that, in old times, moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are: one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will. To strive. To seek. To find and not to yield. Alfred, Lord Tennyson - Ulysses
Yes it can be.... On the other side being weak willed can expose vulnerabilities.
