No child should die.

I have to pick my battles – so that I can win, not merely fight.

- – - – -pay only passing attention to some unfairness in the world – and live with that burden of guilt.

Just make sure you don’t use that as an excuse to ignore everything.

Pick your battles. Don’t run away from the battlefield!

As I see it,

Life itself is the war.

Purpose & the Passions so consumed is the chisel.

When do we pick up the chisel – congruently, how do we recognize the battle?

A beautiful extract to share:

“” It is striking, for instance, how many different professions and disciplines have a word to describe the particular gift of reading deeply into the narrowest silvers of experience. In basketball, the player who can take in and comprehend all that is happening around him or her is said to have “court sense.” In the military, brilliant generals are said to possess “ coup d’oeil” – which, translated from the French, means “power of the glance”: the ability to immediately see and make sense of the battlefield. Napoleon had coup d’oeil. So did Patton. The ornithologist David Sibley says that in Cape May, New Jersey, he once spotted a bird in flight from two hundred yards and knew, instantly, that it was a ruff, a rare sandpiper. He had never seen a ruff in flight before, nor was the moment long enough for him to make a careful identification. But he was able to capture what bird watchers call the bird’s “giss” – its essence – and that was enough.””
