If truth be told, after the sort of draft mandate issued, no one really knows what will happen next. A poem by A.A Milne which is called “Wind on the Hill” comes to mind at this point in time. The poem is not written with a sense of uncertainty, but more the curiosity of wanting to know; “No one can tell me, Nobody knows, Where the wind comes from, Where the wind goes.” The framework is already there; the groundwork has been done; but as to what happens next, nobody knows.
