Cease to inquire what the future has in store, and to take as a gift whatever the day brings forth.

REFLECTION:
There are many people who, for whatever psychological reason, will attempt to drag you into battle, be it physical, verbal or psychic.
If you allow yourself to be drawn in and you win, you may feel a momentary sense of superiority.
If you allow yourself to be drawn in and lose, you may feel humiliation.
Is superiority peace? No it is an emotion based in ego gratification.
Is humiliation peace? No, it is an emotion based in loss of self esteem.
In battle there can be no peace – neither for the winner, nor for the loser.
Don’t fight!

REFLECTION:
We often see problems through the lens that we’re used to using. The banker sees a solution around money, the activist might see an opportunity for social justice. The technologist figures that a computer and more data might help, and the bureaucrat is looking for a system to put into place. If a lens is working, that’s terrific. If it’s not, perhaps there’s a mismatch between the tool we’re used to and the one that actually works.
