Practical
When you say “I am being practical”, how are you perceived?
For reasons unknown, words have come to take on connotations that they don’t necessarily have to!
A lion is “practical”. Notice how a herd of zebras do not fear standing shoulder to shoulder with a pride of lions and lionesses at the water pool, when the lions are not hungry. But come time for the lion to feed it’s pride; and the zebras take the run. A zebra is practical too!
Being practical means, you mean business!
Don’t hunt when you are not hungry. Don’t be scared when you don’t have to. Understand the difference. That’s being practical!
