Post No. 681 – For Sunday evening’s meditation-clearing



For everyone’s convenience, I’ve shifted the reminders / explanations about Sunday’s meditation-clearing to the end of this post.

Now, the themes – short, medium and long term - that come to mind for my work this week, after I review all this news, are (and no apologies if this repeats the themes of any previous weeks – in fact, given the size of this task, that is to be expected):
(a) talking and international aid are making encouraging progress in a number of areas of the world, but this only works if people genuinely listen - and attempts to stop people communicating continue;
(b) flawed though it may seem (owing to the constraints of political reality), international laws, agreements and respect are one of the best ways we currently have to achieve peace, and thus incidents where these norms are breached should always be of concern – they are nations doing large scale versions of individuals going back on their word to be ‘good’ in some way, and show arrogance and a lack of concern for people. Sometimes these breaches are within a society, not between societies … ;
(c) violence is often a form of communication, a form of communication akin to bullying and other attempts to intimidate others into doing what one wishes (i.e., control). It needs to be stood up to appropriately (and all apologies for violence need to be credible – which includes being genuine, based on a true and accurate understanding of the problem, reparations, and a credible guarantee that such behaviour will not happen again), but even better, cut it off at the pass by addressing the character / personality of children as they are raised – which, in some instances, is a task parents may need help with (particularly if those parents have such flaws themselves);
(d) recognising a problem as being a problem is always a key first step in solving any problem;
(e) active or even forceful restraint of those doing actual harm is justified, PROVIDED such restraint is GENUINELY BPLF. Overreaction or disproportionate actions are NEVER justified, and simply perpetuate the wrong, in a spiritual / moral / ethical sense, and often in practical ways as well;

Don’t forget the ”Shield of Hope”, and the importance of clearing nonBPLF units, as well as thinking about people and places that are most in need of help through Sunday evening’s meditation. Also, we are part of a planet of billions: it may take persistent, patient effort to realise the results we are seeking – and doing so in a BPLF [1] way is only effective way to do so.

News and other matters from this week include the following (opportunities/good news are shown in green; good news/comments areshown in purple; WARNING: some of these links may contain triggers around issues such as violence, sexual assault, discrimination, etc). Incidentally, the purpose of reading these news links is not only to inform: it is also to stimulate a connection to nonBPLF units that need to be cleared and BPLF units that need to be strengthened. That only works if you don’t let yourself be overwhelmed by this, so take it in small chunks if you need to, but remember to actively clear and heal! … including yourself.
  • permanent issue: may all actual and potential BPLF [1] Leaders be kept safe against any/all attempts to divert them away from effectively fulfilling their role of Service to Life by being effective BPLF Leader(s), including keeping them undetectable to the nonBPLF and keeping all their Significant Others inviolable against being used for indirect psychic attack (including also being kept undetectable to the nonBPLF), all as is for the Highest Spiritual Good;
  • 2nd permanent issue: may all actual BPLF workers create, with the guidance and assistance of their Higher Self and BPLF allies, a reserve of positive (BPLF) energy, links, allies and other units, sufficient to act as a (tactical) reserve for when it is needed and to ensure that all the BPLF support and resources they need continue;

From the Daily Briefings of the United Nations (UN) (and other sources):
  • in Yemen, humanitarian organizations and local residents have confirmed that air strikes bombarded the Al Mazraq area of Hajjah Governorate yesterday morning, hitting a camp for internally displaced persons and surrounding civilian infrastructure. The Secretary-General expressed concern over reports of numerous civilian casualties resulting from ongoing military operations in Yemen, including the airstrike. The humanitarian coordinator in Yemen said he was appalled by the killing of a volunteer with the Yemen Red Crescent Society in Al Dhale'e in southern Yemen, on Monday. [Comment] Also, see here, here, and report by the ICG, below;
  • the Secretary-General has met with President Mohammed Fuad Masum, Prime Minister Haider Al Abadi, and Speaker Saleem al-Jabouri, and spoke by phone with President Massoud Barzani of the Kurdistan Regional Government, and he has recognised and appreciated the commitment of Iraqi leadership to maintaining the momentum for national reconciliation and unity. However, he remains extremely concerned about the security crisis in Iraq and its impact on civilians, including allegations of summary killings, abductions and destruction of property perpetrated by forces and militias fighting alongside Iraqi armed forces - civilians freed from the brutality of Da’esh should not have to then fear their liberators. Meanwhile, the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) has called for an investigation into the death of two Iraqis at the Bulgaria-Turkey border earlier this month, and remains concerned about the safety of people seeking international protection, who have been denied entry or have encountered violence at the European Union's external borders [HRW report on this problem here]; 
  • the Secretary-General’s Special Representative for Iraq, Ján Kubiš, welcomed the recent victories of the Iraqi Security Forces in liberating the town of Tikrit from Da’esh and associated armed groups. Mr. Kubiš said that civilians’ safety and security must be protected in line with fundamental human rights principles and humanitarian law [See HRW’s concerns about that here];
  • the UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) has condemned this week’s suicide attack in Khost Province which killed 16 civilians injured another 40, including four children, after a suicide bomber detonated explosive devices at a peaceful demonstration at the Khost Provincial Governor’s residence. The Secretary-General’s Special Representative, Nicholas Haysom, has called the attack an atrocity and has urged those responsible to be held accountable;
  • the Secretary-General spoke at the Third Humanitarian Pledging Conference for Syria, earlier this week, in Kuwait, and said that four out of five Syrians live in poverty, misery and deprivation. The country has lost nearly four decades of human development. The Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) says that the humanitarian situation in Idleb, north-western Syria, is deteriorating. The fighting, which escalated on 24th March, between the Government of Syria and Non-State Armed Groups has led to numerous civilian deaths and injuries, and to the displacement of some 30,000 people. The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has said that it urgently needs $121 million to prevent further deterioration of the food security situation and the collapse of regional food chains affected by the Syrian crisis;
  • the Secretary-General met in Kuwait City this week with Hossein Amir Abdollahian, the Deputy Foreign Minister of the Islamic Republic of Iran. The Secretary-General and the Deputy Foreign Minister reviewed the situations in Syria, Yemen and Iraq, and the Secretary-General underscored the extremely difficult humanitarian situation in Yemen, need for all countries in the region to ensure that Iraq does not fall due to sectarian fighting (the Secretary-General requested Iran do everything possible to support the Iraqi Government's efforts to promote national reconciliation), and discussed efforts to promote dialogue, a transitional governing body and an end to the conflict in order to bring an end to the terrible suffering of the Syrian people [Comment] On Iran, see also here, regarding the nuclear negotiations;
  • the Secretary-General has strongly condemned the terrorist attack on Garissa University College, in Kenya, which has left dozens dead and injured, with an unconfirmed number of students held hostage;
  • the UN Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) today welcomed the ceasefire and the withdrawal of forces from the Sidra Oil Crescent area;
  • the UN Inquiry launched by the Secretary-General to determine the facts surrounding the violent demonstration that took place on 27th January 2015 in Mali, in front of the UN Multidimensional Integrated Stabilisation Mission in Mali (MINUSMA) Regional Headquarters has submitted its report, and, according to a statement by the Secretary-General, found that: members of a MINUSMA Formed Police Unit used unauthorized and excessive force on civilian protesters during the demonstration, resulting in the death by gunfire of three protesters and the wounding of four others; some protesters and organisers of the demonstration bear responsibility for the violence of the protest, which included Molotov cocktails, stone throwing and attempts to breach the perimeter of the Regional MINUSMA Headquarters in Gao; and MINUSMA security forces were left to face the protesters on their own, in violation of the Status of Forces Agreement with the host country;
  • the Secretary-General's Special Adviser on Myanmar, Vijay Nambiar, has called today's ceasefire agreement between the Government and 16 ethnic armed groups after more than 60 years of conflict a “historic and significant achievement” [HRW has a report on positive steps towards democratic elections in Burma, and another on the regressive arrests of demonstrating students and monks];
  • the UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF) said today that more than 40 children have been killed and more than 100 others injured by landmines and unexploded ordnance in Donetsk and Luhansk in eastern Ukraine in the past year [Comment] Also, see here;
  • the Secretary-General’s Special Adviser for Cyprus, Espen Barth Eide, will return to the country on 6th April to follow up on the encouraging indications received during his last trip to the island regarding a possible resumption of the negotiations;
  • Head of the UN West Africa Office (UNOWA) Mohammed Ibn Chambas and Deputy Emergency Relief Coordinator Kyung-wha Kang briefed the Security Council on Boko Haram this week. Mr. Chambas noted that Boko Haram was unable to disrupt the electoral process in Nigeria and, following the regional forces’ involvement in Eastern Nigeria, the group’s control has been reduced to only a few areas, but its violence and brutality had intensified. Ms. Kang said that the ongoing violent conflict in north-eastern Nigeria and the Lake Chad Basin had forcibly displaced at least 1.5 million people in Nigeria and neighbouring countries, and as many as three million people in northern Nigeria will not be able to meet their basic food needs after July 2015 unless they receive well-targeted humanitarian assistance. In addition to insecurity, lack of donor support is constraining the expansion of the humanitarian footprint, Ms Kang told the Council;
  • on a more positive note, the Secretary-General has congratulated President-elect Buhari, commended President Jonathan for his leadership throughout the electoral process and his statesmanship in upholding the democratic process, applauded the Electoral Commission for having organised and carried out the elections in a professional manner under challenging circumstances, and called on all Nigerians to accept the outcome of the elections or address any complaints they may have through existing legal and constitutional channels. [Comment] if the transition of power is peaceful, that is good. As to what the new regime will be like, we will have to see - has General Buhari learned from past mistakes? See HER’s comment on that aspect here;
  • the Special Representative of the Secretary-General on Sexual Violence in Conflict, Zainab Hawa Bangura, said the Democratic Republic of the Congo today marked a milestone with the signing by commanders of the Congolese Army of a landmark declaration to combat rape in war;
  • the Humanitarian Coordinator for Vanuatu, Osnat Lubrani, warned today of a potential second emergency due to the destruction of 90 per cent of crops by tropical cyclone Pam;
  • the UN Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS) welcomed the temporary deployment of a British Royal Air Force C-130 aircraft to South Sudan, which will enable the delivery of vital supplies and vehicles to the UNMISS base and its Protection of Civilians’ site ahead of the imminent wet season, during which 60 per cent of the roads in South Sudan will be impassable and Malakal will be mostly reachable by river barges. The Humanitarian Coordinator for South Sudan, Toby Lanzer, has issued a statement calling for people’s freedom of movement during the planting season to allow them to access their land, plant crops, tend to livestock and trade without fear of violence;
  • the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) is teaming up with the Government of Mali to restore the livelihoods of households affected by the armed conflicts and climate change in the northern part of the country;
  • the Office for the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) said yesterday that Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha of Thailand was granted permission to revoke martial law and to replace it with extraordinary powers under the Interim Constitution. The High Commissioner, Zeid Ra'ad Al Hussein, said that he would normally welcome the lifting of martial law, but that he is alarmed at the decision to replace it with something even more draconian, which bestows unlimited powers on the current Prime Minister without any judicial oversight at all. He said that this leaves the door open to serious violations of human rights;
  • the Deputy Secretary-General Jan Eliasson spoke this morning at the General Assembly’s High-Level Interactive Dialogue on the International Decade for Action “Water for Life”, and said that by 2025, two thirds of the world’s population could live in water-stressed conditions, with global demand for water jumping by 40 per cent by 2050;
  • the Secretary-General has announced the appointment of a High-level Panel on the Global Response to Health Crises, and has asked the Panel to make recommendations to strengthen national and international systems to prevent and manage future health crises, taking into account lessons learned from the response to the outbreak of Ebola virus disease;
From other sites:
  • the US-based and centric “War on the Rocks” blog (which I have found may also have other articles that I have concerns with - and thus do not provide links to) has:   a review of China’s policies and increasingly complicated political situation with regard to the Middle East;   a review of the challenges and problems being faced by Peru, including drug trafficking, a “criminal economy”, failure of the government to engage with people living in the inland, and what is happening in nearby nations   an article on the benefits and disadvantages of the concept of ‘hybrid’ warfare – the disadvantages including its limitation on NATO taking effective action against Russia; ;   an article on the death of a war journalist in World War Part 2, and the notes for an incredible article he had in his pocket at the time;
  • Human Rights Watch has:   a report on the problems with the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) in the US State of Indiana;   a report on pressures to modify human rights in Tunisia after the recent terrorist attacks;   a report that Azerbaijan has refused to allow a HRW observer to enter, for the purpose of watching trials against arrested human rights “defenders”;   a call for the authorities’ response to the heinous attack on students in Kenya to respect human rights;   concerns over the actions of the Israeli Defence Forces against Bedouins;   a report that Greece has repealed abusive health legislation;   a report on the importance that the new Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank makes sure that new infrastructure benefits communities rather than harms them;   a report that a Crimean TV station that broadcast in Tatar and other languages has been forced to shut down;
  • the Nonviolent Conflict site has links to:   an assessment of the splits and pressures at a high level in Russia which are plaguing Mr Putin: this makes the importance of working on people around Mr Putin clear (see also here and here);   a report on an increasingly authoritarian leadership in China;   an article on 11 pro-democracy leaders who face jail or death;   a report that an anti-Mugabe activist in Zimbabwe has been disappeared;   reports on actions against cartoonists in Turkey and Ecuador;   a report on the possibility that China’s crack down on feminist activist could backfire;   a report on an anti-mining activist in Ecuador;   a report on action for rights by rural women in Tunisia;   a suggestion for a tourist boycott to pressure the government in the Maldives;   a report that police in Egypt are charging witnesses to an alleged police murder, allegedly in order to intimidate them;   a report that Hong Kong’s opposition leader is upbeat (‘stalwart’) about democracy;   the growth of direct action by indigenous groups in the Amazon;   a report that a strike has led to a change of government policy in Viêt Nam;   a report on fears that violence attributed to an outlawed Marxist revolutionary group may lead Turkish President Erdogan to clamp down further on political dissent in order to consolidate his hold on power;
  • the Justice in Conflict blog has:   an article on the possibility that international law may be brought to bear on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, and another on the problems and limitations that the ICC may have;
  • the International Crisis Group has:   a report on the current conflict in Yemen which reviews the history and cultural complexities of the situation, commenting that the Gulf Cooperation Council had the influence to mediate but set impossible preconditions on talks, the Saudis are viewing the Houthis solely as proxies for Iran, and that “Egged on by regional powerhouses Saudi Arabia and Iran, Yemenis may not be able to avoid a prolonged war. If they are to, the GCC should step back from the military path and harmonise diplomatic efforts with the UN, which still has a critical role in facilitating compromise … The immediate priority should be a UN Security Council brokered and monitored ceasefire, followed by UN-led peace talks with GCC backing, without preconditions, focusing on the presidency and leaving other power-sharing topics until basic agreement is reached on a single president with one or multiple vice presidents or a presidential council. Agreement on the executive would enable further talk on other aspects of pre-election power sharing in the government and military, and on state structure, particularly the future of the south, where separatist sentiment is strong. Both have been core drivers of conflict since the NDC ended in January 2014 … Without minimum consensus within and beyond its borders, Yemen is headed for protracted violence on multiple fronts. This combination of proxy wars, sectarian violence, state collapse and militia rule has become sadly familiar in the region. Nobody is likely to win such a fight, which will only benefit those who prosper in the chaos of war, such as al-Qaeda and IS. But great human suffering would be certain. An alternative exists, but only if Yemenis and their neighbours choose it”;   a review of the situation in Ukraine;
and, from other sources:
I have a simplified blogiography of posts related to this work here, a list of themes I have identified here, and my changing the personality of oppressors post, which I am contemplating expanding to include some key people to work on, is here.

Now, my regular weekly reminder / explanation.

Remember that, in general, every ‘bad’ news story is something that requires:
(i) clearing of all negative energy associated with the event directly (e.g., pain, fear, etc on the part of the direct victims) or indirectly (e.g., fear, overreactions, inappropriate reactions, or seeking to outdo others’ reactions in others reached via the media);
(ii) healing of those harmed;
(iii) that those responsible be found through BPLF [1] means and brought to BPLF justice (if otherwise, as the means shape the end, the result will a society that is lessened and a strengthening of the so-called ‘law of the jungle’ [2]); and
(iv) that BPLF inspiration be given to enable all to rise above this, and take BPLF actions that will ensure a BPLF prevention of a recurrence, in the sense that USA President John F Kennedy talked of “true and lasting peace”.
Thus, every one of these ‘bad news’ stories is an opportunity – but, furthermore, so are many of the ‘good’ news stories, which often requires nonBPLF units to be cleared to prevent blocking of improvements, to help those who are busting their guts and becoming exhausted trying to make good things happen, and to provide some much needed BPLF inspiration and encouragement –
every
single
good
news
story.
Don’t be complacent :)

Now, keep always in mind that I started this meditation programme based on the idea of generating the energy of peace, as set out in the channelled teachings of “The Nine” in Phyllis V. Schlemmer's "The Only Planet of Choice" (see p. 279 - well, in my copy at least :) ), which was the follow up to the brilliant "Briefing for the Landing on Planet Earth" by Stuart Holroyd [2]. “The Nine” proposed getting twelve (or a minimum of three) people to meditate for eighteen minutes (or a minimum of nine minutes) at 9 PM Sunday in Jerusalem, which is based on using the Magickal Principle of Harmony (of time), from the Watery Magickal Law of Frequency, and the Magickal Principle of Effect, from the Earthy Magickal Law of Strength and Common Sense. In other words, get everyone working together, at the same time, and as many people as possible, for as much impact as possible.

Now, that is valid, but getting people to work at the same time across the world is an incredibly difficult proposition – and, in my experience (including for multinational companies in my day job), leads to fewer people taking part. That experience also includes my time at the Correllian Shrine of the Crystal Web, where one member (not me – I hate getting credit where I don’t deserve it) pointed out that they had found that having people perform work at the same hour by their local time can build up a wave of energy going around the entire planet, which is the Magickal Principle of Dynamism from the Fiery Magickal Law of the Taijitu. That worked well there, and so I have adopted it for these meditations. I also am happy for every person who wants to contribute to do so, rather than waiting until there is a group of a minimum size, which relies on harmony of focus being a way of overcoming physical separation (which is the Magickal Principle of Magickal Distance, from the Airy Magickal Law of Distance).

“The Nine” are the first source I can remember talking about Balanced Positive, which is where I get the term BPLF [1], but:
 I also include the use of clearing, so there is more than one difference to the original proposal.
However, I agree that the more people who join in, the better.

I would also like to point out that other people have been working on the use of coordinated, group meditation for beneficial effect, including the Lucis Trust's Triangles network (which has been running for many decades, since before World War Part Two, I think),   the Correllian Tradition's 'Spiritual War for Peace' (begun in 2014), the Hope, Peace, Love and Prosperity Spell (also from the Correllian Tradition, in around 2007 or 2008, I think, from memory),   the Healing Minute started by the late, great Harry Edwards (held at 10Am and 10PM local time each day, and one can pay to be officially registered. This also has been running for decades);   and   a Druid ritual for peace, to be performed at each Full Moon (begun in 2014, I think). This work is neither original nor solitary. Other spiritual paths do this sort of work as well - for instance, see here and here, and even commercial organisations are getting involved (for instance, see here).

To further set the mood for this work, here are a couple of quotes from this surprising article:
“External armed interventions tend to extend the duration of civil wars and even worse, increase the number of civilians killed. A country has a more than 40% chance of relapsing into civil war within 10 years if the conflict is resolved through violent means”;

“Admittedly, a political struggle is not a panacea for every type of violence, but nonviolent organizing and mobilizing against violent actors have proven to be historically twice as effective as and three times shorter than armed struggle, not to mention almost 10 times more likely to bring about a democratic outcome within 5 years after the end of the conflict than its violent counterpart.”
Ongoing military conflicts are listed at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ongoing_military_conflicts, and include (as of Wednesday 21st January, 2015):
This can be viewed as a map at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ongoing_conflicts_around_the_world.svg (keep in mind that nations involved have been coloured in completely, whereas the conflict may be in only a part of that nation).

Finally, but far from least, don’t forget the Shield of Hope. This area is formed by (part or all of) the South Atlantic Ocean, Southern and Eastern Africa (including both sources of the Nile), the Indian sub-continent (including the Himalayas) and the Indian Ocean, shown in gold on this week’s energy map, and the aim is to ensure this area consistently has BPLF energy at or above 7 by the time Neptune leaves Pisces, on around 30th March, 2025 (a date which has an eclipse the day before). If you wish to do a little more coordinated action on a positive strategic front, I'm also planning on routinely sending BPLF energy to Hong Kong, Tunisia, and Mexico, which show potential as "outposts of the BPLF”, and I wish to encourage their change for the better. Furthermore, I am currently sending BPLF energy from that area through the Red Sea and Suez Canal, into the Mediterranean, and thence to the connected Black Sea.

[2] Please see here, here and my post "The Death of Wikipedia" for the reasons I now recommend caution when using Wikipedia. I'm also exploring use of h2g2, although that doesn't appear to be as extensive (h2g2 is intended - rather engagingly - to be the Earth edition of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy").

My "blogiography" (list of all posts and guide as to how to best use this site) is here, and my glossary/index is here.

I started this blog to cover karmic regression-rescue (see here and here), and it grew ... See here for my group mind project, here and here for my "Pagans for Peace" project (and join me for a few minutes at some time between 8 and 11 PM on Sunday, wherever you are, to meditate-clear for peace), and here for my bindrune kit-bag. I also strongly recommend learning how to flame, ground and shield, do alternate nostril breathing, work with colour, and see also here and be flexible.

I am a Walker upon the Path of Balanced Positivity, seeking Spiritual Maturity.

  • Neither eloquence nor inarticulateness inherently indicates correctness, but, as words can kill, the right to freedom of speech comes with a DUTY to be as well-informed, objective and balanced as you can be.
  • Gnwmythr's Stropping Strap: Occam's Razor only works if  the simplest solution is actually recognised as being the simplest, rather than the one that best fits one's bigotries being labelled 'simplest'.
  • I mourn the desecration of the term 'Light Worker' by commercial interests, and the warping of the word 'Light' away from 'Clear Light' by the "(Fluffy) White Lighters".
  • Presuming that everyone has, or wants, a smartphone is discriminatory, unspiritual, and downright stupid.
  • Obsessive love may be a cover up of guilt.
  • Proxy embarrassment is both a form of control, and an internal barrier to truth, honesty and perspicacity.
  • Our entire life experience, with all the many wondrous and varied people, places and events in it, is too small a sample for statistical reliability about Life.
  • May the world of commerce and business be recognised to be a servant, not a master, of the lives of people.
  • Life is not a struggle for status.
  • Being accustomed to interacting via certain rules makes those rules neither right nor universal.
  • Like fire to the physical, emotions to the soul make a good servant, and a bad master.
  • The means shape the end.
  • My favourite action movie of all time is "Gandhi", although I've recently come across "Invictus" and might put that one in to that category. However, I loathe the stereotypical action movie - and, for similar reasons, I loathe many dramas, which are often emotionally violent, more so in some cases than many war films.
  • All of the above - and this blog - could be wrong, or subject to context, perspective, or state of spiritual evolution ...


Human dignity is the inherently cumulative holistic combination of human rights, wellbeing and potential, and all actions or interaction which promote, realise or facilitate same. The converse also applies: whatever degrades, diminishes or robs humans of dignity, is inherently undignified.
Gnwmythr

The “purpose” of spiritual evolution is not the attainment of “spiritual perfection” - not in the sense of not having to evolve further, at any rate, since there is no such thing. We need to evolve in order to grow - but we can take rest breaks (hopefully well earned :) ) along the way. No, the “purpose” of evolution is, rather, to perfect our ability to learn, and thus grow.
Gnwmythr

Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.
Martin Luther King, Jr.

Females, get over 'cute'. Get competent. Get trained. Get capable. Get over 'cute'. And those of you who are called Patty and Debby and Suzy, get over that. Because we use those names to infantalise females – we keep females in their 'little girl' state by the names we use for them. Get over it. If you want to be taken seriously, get serious.
Jane Elliott

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good [people] to do nothing.

We didn't inherit the Earth from our ancestors, we only borrowed it from our children
Antoine De Saint-Exupéry

There are risks and costs to a program of action. But they are far less than the long-range risks and costs of comfortable inaction.
