More early spring-break thoughts

The Legends of the Sun Pig, a blog I don't know (via Making Light, a blog I do know) ruminates on being the second-best swordsman in Caribastos.  Strive to be the best, it says, but take some time to appreciate what you have accomplished.  Wise words.

It reminded me irrevocably of this, though:



Be careful not to shoot yourself in the belly looking for a fight you can win.

Sometimes the metaphors just write themselves.
