What's a Truth Pick you ask?
A Truth Pick is a short, sharp commentary designed to extract 'Truth' from a Quote, pithy saying, epigram or graffiti. I send these out whenever the muse strikes. My goal is to continue generating them as long as people keep reading them.
Windows of opportunity exist
for only a brief moment in time,
you have to have vision in order to spot them,
and take advantage of them.
John Sculley

"But it's not our responsibility..." is an all too common response which discloses the hidden belief that problems should only be solved by those who cause them. When in reality, problems offer the opportunity to be of service and make a difference.
Every whine and complaint, either overheard or spoken by our own lips points to opportunity in disguise.
There's no doublespeak here, no sight confounded by a rose coloured view. Problems are obstacles. It's our ability to overcome them that raises us to new heights. It's the solving that brings the glory, not the being halted.
To have a vision is to receive a gift of responsibility from ourselves. Whether we choose to ignore it, or embrace it, is a test of our courage and determination.
