An excellent post. One always hears me talk of Pragmatism. It is a strong quality when one can asses the reality of ones environment, make the best of what is there, recognize the fights that can be won and plan for the fights of another day.

Wasting all on the impossible make the rest that is probable moot. There is no one left to achieve it.

There is the way things are and the way things ought to be. Deal with the first, dream of the latter...
