How to stay sane

Stay out of the stories: stop building cases, spinning narratives, assigning roles. Leave the plot lines to screenwriters.

Stop looking for pattern: when an astrologer looks in the sky and sees a constellation in the shape of a duck, it appears to be there, though the stars only appear so from our perspective and are not in formation.

Stay out of the abstract: stay in the day, asking only:

- Where should I go?
- What should I do?
- What should I say, and to whom?
