here is a list of scriptures that Ani and I gathered on the topic of “running faster than you have strength”, or in other words, the balance between complacency and contentment.

it seems as though the only real answer is (as i often seem to conclude, and which conclusion i have to reference to a conversation of yesteryear with on ben brinton) the perpetuation of the question.
