Today that broken leg would be a source
of outrage and probably lawsuits.
I long for a simpler time when life was taken less seriously.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

for a visiting stranger to do -
find out what the country's customs are,
and refrain from offending against them.

giving them power over us:
power over our sleep, our appetites,

Our hate is not hurting them at all,
but our hate is turning our own days
and nights into a hellish turmoil.

thus freeing your mind to think clearly toward the solution
that is certain to come. Never take yourself too seriously.
