Just Show Up
Jan 22, 2020, 7:59 PM JUST SHOW UP.
The way I’d put it is: 1. Showing up is more important than understanding perfectly or being able to predict what will happen. 2. If in doubt, show up. 3. If we show up, we win. 4. The more that show up, the more easily we win. —John Mark

Every time I hear something like that it energizes me to work even harder.

Man up. Show up. Fight.
Jan 23, 2020, 2:47 PM The Propertarian Institute (a) I have been in the states for three years working on “the project” – and I don’t see much in the way of other options. (b) I was in Richmond. (I didn’t go to C’ville because I saw the cluster-f-k coming and ‘leadership’ told me to avoid it. (c) The only option is indeed civil war – you are welcome to argue otherwise. Man up. Show up. Fight. And stop pretending you’re other than a gutless free riding coward on the risks and labors of better men.

A Lesson of How a Warrior Is to To Become a King: Through Nobility.
There are values to be learned from both Achilles(a King who is not yet noble) and Hector (a warrior who is noble). However, what does it say about rage, power, and forgiveness to men who would be kings? Iliad and Odyssey are two books in what is called the Epic Cycle. The “Bible” of the ancient world. There were six others that told the other parts. The other books were much shorter And one amendment to them: the Aeneid. THE EPIC CYCLE: ACT I 1. Cypria – preamble and first nine years of the war.
2. Illiad – The rage of achilles
ACT II 3. Aetheiopis – death of achilles 4. Little Illiad – building the trojan horse
5. Iliou Persis – sack of troy
ACTIII 6. Nostoi – Everyone but odysseus returns home 7. Odyssey – Odysseus’ journey home
8. Telogony – Odysseus gets killed
POSTSCRIPT 9. Aneid – The last trojan goes west. (added later). The others are largely lost. But most of the dramas (plays) take place during these stories. And there is a lot of written commentary. So we can reconstruct them. The Iliad is “A Story of Achilles Rage” or “The Rage of Achilles“. But Priam comes to Achilles and they settle the rage. He learns to forgive his enemies and abandon his rage. It is a story of aristocracy becoming through respect and forgiveness. It is a lesson of how a warrior is to to become a king: Through Nobility.
