Dear Colleagues: 
I found this to be an interesting article. I couldn't help but  wonder how 
some of you would respond to it. Here is an exerpt and  a link to the full 
article is below: 
"To allow oneself to be carried away by a  multitude of conflicting 
concerns, to surrender to too many demands, to  commit oneself to too many projects 
... is to succumb to violence. The  frenzy of our activism ... kills the 
root of inner wisdom which makes work  fruitful."
To stay  alive, we needed prophet, pastor, and monk.
