Banter, if you please – in favor of routine. I routinely resist (with shouts of Viva le Resistance!) the tenacious grip that devotion to discipline has on me. To succumb, to sign treaty – be overcome, would admit my need for things molded to shape my un-shapeliness. Our out-of-the-box cultural revolution detests, nay even blows its nose at, things routine, prescribed, set in sequence. And yet, the preponderance is such that without dedication to things that routinely challenge, we cannot change. Without repetition of exercise, we cannot grow. We must make peace with routine, she is ally.
