Wise Advice for the Challenges Ahead
My counterpart, my foolish heart
A man must learn to rule his tender part
A warming trend, a gentle friend
A man must build a fortress to defend
A secret face, a touch of grace
A man must learn to give a little space
A peaceful state, a submissive trait
A man must learn to gently dominate
— Rush, Animate
The challenges the world faces today are immense, and I have sympathy with anyone trying to tackle the issues of the day. I try to do my part to make the world a little better place every week here in the Alert , and I try not to be too critical of those that I disagree with vehemently. I think that for the most part, and with the exception of a few extremists, we all want a better world. Hopefully, we can defend our fortresses with a touch of grace — and learn to gently dominate.
