When Danger
Encircles you,
Show yourself
Steadfast and
undaunted,
But when the winds
are too favorable,
fail not to show
wise caution and
haul in the billowing sail.
Horace
Oh how easy it is to run when the wind is at your back. To break out into a run, so to speak, when a steady, steadfast, enduring walking-on would be wisest all around.

Glad you like ’em Jim. I’m moving into a period of time when I have more chance to post. Reasonably regularly. Glad of that.
Timely & profound.
As always your posts inspire. ❤️
Thanks Jessica. To a woman you were and are upright and the world stands with you.
