Christ, who said to the disciples, 'you have not chosen me, but i have chosen you,' can truly say to every group of christian friends, 'you have not chosen one another but i have chosen you for one another.'

There's a tendency at the senior and middle-manager level to be too big-picturish and too superficial. there is a phrase, "the devil is in the details." one can formulate brilliant global strategies whose executability is zero. it's only through familiarity with details - the capability of the individuals who have to execute, the marketplace, the timing - that a good strategy emerges. i like to work from details to big pictures.

As we speak of poetical beauty, so ought we to speak of mathematical beauty and medical beauty. but we do not do so; and that reason is that we know well what is the object of mathematics, and that it consists in proofs, and what is the object of medicine, and that it consists in healing. but we do not know in what grace consists, which is the object of poetry.

I think of the trees and how simply they let go, let fall the riches of a season, how without grief (it seems) they can let go and go deep into their roots for renewal and sleep.... imitate the trees. learn to lose in order to recover, and remember that nothing stays the same for long, not even pain, psychic pain. sit it out. let it all pass. let it go.
