Balance
Opposing forces
wrestle with tricky issues
seeking good outcomes

- A difficult meeting at work today, where the desires for profile opportunities and reputation enhancement could risk fabulous public outcomes. I have a philosophy and it is this.
Never seek to be seen to be doing the right thing. Do the right thing and you will be seen.

First published in May 2015, I felt this haiku deserved a repost. I had kingfishers on my mind.
Slow lowland rivers,
pulling nets for a living,
those halcyon days.
