"So how can we be useful? " Without doubt, one of the most 'useful' questions of our time. Thank you ever so much for raising this issue. "Why is the concept of honor even remotely important in 2025 Western civilization? I fear it’s not but I think it **should** be. " If we substitute one modal for another, we might get a more convincing result. "I fear it's not, but I think it **must** be." When dealing with modals, I remember a professor making the joke... "Don't should on me". 🤣 ...and I laughed. Jokes aside, the concept of 'honor' is without exception one of the most important patterns we will ever experience. And to take that one step further...one of the most important patterns we will ever "embody." Your insight to use Cicero and his concept....brilliant! **Embodied Usefulness.** If we use personal experience as a guide....**healing hands**....are the most useful things human beings have. How best can we use our hands to heal ourselves and others? There is honor in this adventure. I can think of no better investment of time and effort, than to learn how to use our hands...to help. To be honorable. And here we are.😇 Peace.

I’m never going to forget that modal. “Don’t should on me” is now etched into my mind. Lol 😂 I love it. So, yes, we *must* use our hands. Now, my job for the day is to go figure out how to do that to the best of my ability… 🤓
