## Caption

NFL linebacker Ryan Shazier (and aspiring Stoic) would work his way back from that freak on-field tackle that left him paralyzed: One small bit of progress after the next.  “Well-being,” Zeno once said, “is realized by small steps but it is no small thing.” #RyanShazier pointed out that football is a “game of inches” and so too was his recovery, from a hospital bed to a wheelchair, then gaining back the ability to move his muscles, then standing unassisted, then taking one step, then taking more, then being able to jog, then being able to do a three-foot box jump.  The ceiling on his comeback? There isn’t one. He’s going to keep going as long as there is breath in his body.  And so must you. There is no question that we face real problems right now. Whatever the problem, whatever the cause—the solution is the same. To keep going.
