On progress

It occurs to me that steady progress is often as desirable as fast progress, if not more so.

Why? Because with the marriage between the certainty of steady progress and the certainty of time progressing, victory is assured.

  2. ... with the marriage between the certainty of steady progress and the certainty of time progressing, victory is assured.

    That's "the way of Chi", the force of life, which lets a growing blade of grass or a flower win over stone resp. concrete.

    Any dumb stone thrown onto a rose will destroy it, but in the long run the rose will win.

    That's why I'm trusting life, it will finally win over "glorious Capitalism" and other destructive phenomena like that. (Maybe not in my lifetime.)
