The Power of Full Engagement

At first, the primary selling points for the triangle were that it brought floor balance and it gave Jordan room to work. Both were obvious. The floor balance alone made the Bulls a better defensive team right away, because the offense always left a guard at the top of the key ready to “get back” on defense. The coaches knew they could win some games on this ability to defend in transition. “Whatever offense you teach, you must be able to defend after the shot is taken,” Bach offered. “You have a duty to know where to go. Tex’s offense gave you the balance and the ability.”

Don’t we need instead to see that the swamplands are an inevitable and necessary counterpart to our conscious fantasies of power? Is it an accident that the more we have conquered in the outer world, the more the disquiet of our inner world? The ongoing curriculum of life does not demand that we avoid suffering; it asks instead that we live more meaningfully in the face of it. Despite the blandishments of popular culture, the goal of life is not happiness but meaning.
