How government works.

I simply cannot say it any better than this.

An observation.

An idea flew to me recently, that seems to need putting down. The idea is certainly apropos of the crisis of the moment, but it also somehow seems bigger than that. Anyway, without further comment, here it is:

Prioritizing “what ought to be” is the road to madness
(that’s how we got here)

Prioritizing “what can be” is the road to health
(that’s how we avoid madness)

Prioritizing “what is” puts the gearbox in neutral
(that’s how we see the road, and ourselves traveling on it)

Choose your priorities carefully.
