Translation: Inspiration is like a butterfly. She flits and flutters all around our head and we are lucky if she lands on our finger. In these days of war and politics we all search for peace within our own beings. Some, like the Objectivists and Libertarians, choose to secure only for themselves and feel society would benefit greater from each individual taking on a laissez faire attitude. Socialists are more mutually compassionate and we feel that certain individuals haven't the same opportunities as everyone else, and that, the stronger and more privileged can aid in helping to procure the aggrandizement of our culture. We must build together so that the foundation is strong. A slip-shod, individualistic society promotes the "virtue of selfishness" and condemns every citizen to a life of competition and hegemony.
My inspiration comes in many a varied form. At times, she has been a beautiful face and a compassionate heart. Most other times she has come in the form of a book that resonates within my pathos. If it takes 40 more years to kickstart this culture then so be it!! A life dedicated to awareness building is a journey filled with inspiration and compassion. The road less traveled by, at times, is lonely, but only the deepest of bonds are formed when a fellow traveller I do meet.
