Right Makes Might

"Let us have faith that right makes might; and in that faith let us to the end dare to do our duty as we understand it." - Abraham Lincoln

Duty is tough. It carries a sense of obligation, something that isn't easy but that we are compelled to do, either from within or without.

Last week at work we discovered a mistake that might sound off alarms at the highest levels of the company. What will that bring? It doesn't matter. To behave ethically is our duty. What's meant to happen will happen, leading us down yet another one of untold million interesting possible life paths. To steel through and live, that's the might.
