“The die is cast.” Julius Caesar (quoting Menander)
Are You Ready? Every crisis is a crossroad, a creative rubicon, unequivocal its path, where bridges catch fire and values are deadweights ready to drown should you linger in the comfort of your resistance construed as maturity, or some point of arrival approved by elders, that needs to be shifted, not just for yourself, but for the good of all. ©Paul Vincent Cannon
