In a day my great week was turned upside down with the digestion of a problem that was presented to me little while back. this is a problem with no easy answer and with various issues that will undoubtedly affect me and my work. i came to terms with it and now i have to figure out what to do next.

but i opened up my assigned book and came to another realisation regarding the reading in my hands: i dont buy the argument. not only do i not buy the argument - i know exactly why i do not buy it. a good friend who knows me very well suggested i read a trusted essay on combat and the history of violence and the first world war to cheer myself up; and it did.
