Don't be lulled to sleep by the numbing cold of depression. People who freeze to death are constantly pulled down by the desire to rest, sleep, give up, that "no one is coming for you". Get up, move around, stay angry, laugh.
"To be brave cheerily, to be patient with a glad heart, to stand the agonies of thirst with laughter and song, to walk beside death for months and never be sad – that's the spirit that makes courage worth having."
