Theory of rationality

'Do not forget your purpose', I said to myself.

When you see lies and injustice to be fought, you will take up arms. You will stand and fight. You will make harsh moves and bitter choices. But the defeat of an enemy must never come at the cost of what you took up arms to protect. 'Do not forget your purpose.'

When you aspire to do great works, you will work. You will explore and rework. You will strive and persevere. But valiant attempts must never come at the cost of achieving. 'Do not forget your purpose.'

When you seek happiness, you will make meaning. You will forge connection and write stories. You will create safety and purpose. But maintaining the structure of life must never come at the cost of living it.
