To The Generals (first letter)
| Dear Sirs, |
| What do we love? |
 |
| Is it something beyond ourselves? |
 Do we need others to know we exist? Do we only exist in each other? |
| I remember reading about Xerxes as he marched to war with his armies. After tears welled up in his eyes he explained: “I was thinking about the extreme brevity of men’s lives, for of the multitude before our eyes, not one man will still be alive in a hundred years.” |
 |
| Let’s not let anything abstract get in the way. What are you capable of? What are you really capable of? |
