The Facts of Life...
Life--being in the business of teaching--has afforded me two valuable lessons:

The Issue...
Were it discovered that human beings actually have purpose, it will be of the kind that has been given the least amount of consideration.

Often Times....
There are many in this world who confused Intimidation for Leadership.
