Like some and perhaps like all my interests are both personal and communal, simple and complex, direct and indirect . As these attributes are conflicting and harmonious  and as they seem out of sinque they are as well synergetic . what is locally synergetic often is globally conflicted  perhaps my personal and communal interests are no different ,but I make a conscious effort to understand and reconcile them by as much as possible when and if possible. That to me is what is called prudence and being responsible.
