It's the
[[Michael Shermer]] thing: if we ignore the rustling in the grass and
it's the wind, no harm done. But if we ignore it and it's a tiger,
we're dead. So rationally, we behave as though everything is a tiger,
without necessarily realizing that reflexively doing that has a
pretty
high price-tag.
Interesting. On the other hand, in my very own case, I think that if
it's a tiger, then I'm dead anyway: I'm not a warior able to win against
a tiger with bare hand, and I'm not sure on this but isn't the average
tiger a better sprinter than the world biggest human champion in this
field?
It may me think of the quotation, which I red, may be on this list,
(attributed to the Dalai Lama in the document where I found it): "I
there's a solution there's no need to worry, and if there is no
solution, there's no need to worry".
Anyway, yes. Patience, maturity, self-control and generosity for the
win :-)
