366 days of wisdom (October 21, 2020)

Day 295 of wisdom

"Desperate affairs require desperate measures."

Horatio Nelson

Situations well managed never gets out of hand, and when it does happen, special measures must be taken to restore calm, peace and order to the society. Though there is a quest for an end to everything that is unjust and violates human rights, there must be drawn limits, there must be a middle ground, there must be a time frame for every action step, there must be a strategy, and ultimately there must be understanding between all parties involved.

As Andy Andrews would say, "In desperate times, much more than anything else, folks need perspective. For perspective brings calm. Calm leads to clear thinking. Clear thinking yields new ideas. And ideas produce the bloom...of an answer. Keep your head and heart clear. Perspective can just as easily be lost as it can be found." in the agitation for what is right, there must be desperate efforts to keep the essence of the fight alive, and not allow it lost in transit.

Wisdom is needed in all we do, in the fight for freedom it will always become fierce, because the oppressor will never want the oppressed free but he who is determined will get what he wants. As Publius Cornelius Tacitus a first century Roman historian once said, "He that fights and runs away, May turn and fight another day; But he that is in battle slain, Will never rise to fight again." Only those who try to stay alive will fight another day, and when freedom is gained will reap the benefits of a free society.

Our lives should be our paramount responsibility to protect, we must not risk laying it down cheaply, it may be difficult to turn back when the heat is high but, we must know that a soul gone returns not again, safety is needed at this point, we must keep ourselves safe and ensure we don't endanger the lives of those around us, nor put our loved ones in misery and grief. All lives matter, freedom never comes easy, but wisdom is the principal thing. Let us apply wisdom.
