Whether we are prepared to be stranded in a snowstorm, know what to do
during a power outage, or how to give C.P.R., we should all be prepared
to take decisive action. Being ready means taking a little bit of time
to help prevent severe events from becoming tragic. Whether during civil
unrest or economic collapse, being prepared means taking the initiative
to learn to help yourself, and in so doing, can help others along the
way.
