Re: Answer the question above with a question.

Not certain of fitting the socially acceptable profile of an academic but despite my best efforts, I do have enemies and is such a situation not common?

Aren't enemies like beacons, in that, although you very much want to keep clear of them, you are glad they are there because they show you whether you are in the right path?

Isn't it always the ones you don't see that get you though?

Surely you include the ones that you see, but do not recognize as such, don't you?

But would that not require one to know the exact amount of enemies one may have?

I suppose that dendends on whether or not one follows the teachings of Sun Tzu. then, doesn't it?
