Facing the Future

Yesterday in the local paper, the film critic had a little comment that almost slipped past me. It was about some advice he got once on how to prepare for the future. I looked at it several times, and ... it's really good. Here it is, gentle reader:

1) Ask yourself what you fear.

2) Ask yourself what you know to be true.

3) Ask yourself what is the best you can possibly hope for.



Hm. Kinda scary. Kinda real.

This is not some pat formulaic advice. Instead it opens you to consider some things, and then ... leaves you to figure out the rest.

I'm going to add this to my monthly (okay, annual) self-examination checklist. :) And today is a good day to give it a test drive.
