There’s been a lot of fearful talk lately.
When and what will cause
the stock markets to crash.
When and what will cause
the American consumer to stop buying,
spreading pain and trauma in the retail world
and beyond.
These, in my mind,
are emergencies and
emergencies are to be planned for.
Like our house burning down.
How do we plan for it?
We need to be able to recognize
that our house is burning and
have a plan we can
automatically follow
even when scared and confused by the smoke.
Do we need to know what day
our house will burn down?
Or what will cause the fire?
If we could prevent it,
that would be helpful
but otherwise, no.
