"It is for us the living... to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced." -A. Lincoln, brief remarks delivered at Gettysburg.
"What would YOU risk?" That is the question is it not?
At one of our "S & S" gatherings (Smoke & Spirits), I suggested the movie "Hombre," starring Paul Newman and Richard Boone. There is a scene early in the movie that indeed, dramatizes the asking of that very question.
Of course, the "follow-up" question becomes, what should you be empowered to compel me to risk?
