Hmmm..if you are right...a concern for sure. Progressed????

Well, my guess is that it (the quote) could be about any number of things. Coming to my mind first and foremost is the notion that great and positive changes often don't occur in our world w/o great courage/bravado. Isn't that what your quote at the bottom of your post (is it still there???) is all about? Who is it that said that science only "progesses" funeral by funeral????


He talks about making a choice between stimulus and response. Now, sometimes biology gets in the way. This is why we have supplements and medication.

However, there are cognitive things that can be done that make a huge difference as well.

Here is a Frankl quote that I like:

"Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom. "
