"We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark, the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light" -Plato

I'm not sure what the philosopher Plato had in mind when he said this.

But I took the understanding that early on,we (the people who need to use 7CoT, the broken, the problamatic, etc) can be forgiven at 1st for struggling with out respective problems because we needed help from a rut. We had nowhere to turn. i.e. "...forgive a child who is afraid of the dark..."

The real tragedy is that once we've gotten the help, gotten it off our chest, been given advice by listeners or whatever else; we still act defeated. We know now what needs to change but we don't because of fear, feeling not good enough, etc. i.e. "...men are afraid of the light"

Thatsjust how I see/saw it.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn?t do than by the ones you did do, so throw off the bowlines, sail away from safe harbor, catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore, Dream, Discover.
