Outage Post-Mortem, and passings

 "If all emotions are common coin, then what is unique to the good man? To welcome with affection that which is sent by fate.

Not to stain or disturb the spirit within him with a mess of false beliefs.

Instead, to preserve it faithfully, by calmly obeying God - saying nothing untrue, doing nothing unjust.

And if the others don't acknowledge it - this life, lived in simplicity, humility, cheerfulness  - he doesn't resent them for it, and isn't deferred from following the road where it leads; to the end of life.

An end to be approached in purity, in serenity, in acceptance, in peaceful unity with what must be." - Marcus Aurelius

Steam Turbine Valve Maintenance part 2

"What man can you show me who places any value on his time, who reckons the worth of each day, who understands that he is dying daily?

For we are mistaken when we look forward to death; the major portion of death has already passed.  Whatever years are behind us are in death's hands." - Lucius Annaeus Seneca
