one of the big lessons for me in recent times is the value of maintaining continuity.

in the face of chaos, it is always a temptation to vacillate between the many, often distant and disparate possibilities.

the correct response to this is to dig in deeper in whatever you are already in, because everyone is buffeted by the winds of chaos and refusing to move from these forces is something that makes other people more likely to stand with you against the wind.

stubbornness is a virtue. you notice that it's never listed in the 7 deadly sins. stay stubborn. it will serve you well in life.
