Conflict # 2

A perfectly worded statement on Ankit's blog brings out one of the permanent soap operas of my (and I would guess, everyone's) life -

"We have to learn our own lessons. We have to sweep today's possibility under tomorrow's rug until we can't anymore. Until we finally understand for ourselves what Benjamin Franklin really meant. That knowing is better than wondering, that waking is better than sleeping, and even the biggest failure, even the worst, beat the hell out of never trying."
