Tempest

A Libyan fable is told that once an eagle, stricken with a dart, said, when he saw the fashion of the shaft,

"WITH OUR OWN FEATHERS, NOT BY OTHERS' HANDS, ARE WE NOW SMITTEN."

We are destroying ourselves from within from a leader who cares for nothing without his own ego. To even discuss him is to overrate him. 

My latest running mantra in times like this when I feel stressed, frustrated, and righteously indignant, is to utter the words of Prometheus from the Greek tragedy, Prometheus Bound.

It states: "ON ME THE TEMPEST FALLS. IT DOES NOT MAKE ME TREMBLE."

So, keep your focus, stay true, and remember that God is at the helm.

Long live the fighters...and faithful
