"So, then, to every man his chance -- to every man, regardless of his birth, his shining golden opportunity -- to every man his right to live, to work, to be himself, to become whatever his manhood and his vision can combine to make him -- this, seeker, is the promise of America."
- Thomas Wolfe

INDIFFERENCE.
It Takes 43 muscles to Frown and 17 to Smile, But It Doesn't Take Any To Just Sit There With A Dumb Look On Your Face. MEDIOCRITY. It Takes a Lot Less Time and Most People Won't Notice the Difference Until It's Too Late. PROCRASTINATION. Hard Work Often Pays Off After Time, but Laziness Always Pays Off Now. CLUELESSNESS. There Are No Stupid Questions, But There Are A Lot Of Inquisitive Idiots. |

communicate and ask questions, observe and make a decision you can live with.
And if all else false, guess.

Everything can be taken from a man but . . . the last of human freedoms--to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way.
Viktor E. Frankl (1905-1997) Psychiatrist and Auschwitz survivor

I might actually begin to put up something of substance, once I get my avatar back, and focus again.

We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men; and among those fibers, as sympathetic threads, our actions run as causes, and they come back to us as effects.
Herman Melville (1819-1891) Writer

On the verge of change things seem to get worse because we finally see our errors clearly. When we feel stuck, going nowhere - even starting to slip backwards, we may be backing up to get a running start.
