"Whoever has overthrown an existing law of custom has always first been accounted a bad man: but when, as did happen, the law could not afterwards be reinstated and this fact was accepted, the predicate gradually changed; - history treats almost exclusively of these bad men who subsequently became good men!" Nietzsche
What i garner from this statement sometimes change is driven by those who resist it the hardest. I don't know just a random thought. Oft times we avoid change because we can not predict the outcome should we let go of our preset illusions of what is currently our reality.
For some unknown reason The above mentioned quote by Friedrich Nietzsche reminds me of Galileo "You cannot teach a man anything; you can only help him find it within
himself."
"It is surely harmful to souls to make it a heresy to believe what is proved."
"All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them. "
I don't know but they seem to fit together in my head thanks for sharing another of my random moments.
(yeah that was a day for galileo and neitzsche...)

Eye say 15 years ago...
WINDOW'S TO THE SOUL...
They say eye's are the window's to the soul. Yes you may ask "who are they?" and what would their eye's tell us about their souls? For this you would have to ask them. My eyes are clouded as my soul feels very dusty. Why you may ask me would your soul feel dusty? Well you see it is this world in which i live in, that has gotten me down. PEOPLE ARE SO FAKE! you ask me why does this bother me? I will tell you why because i am not a surface dweller that is why. I don't care what kind of car you drive, although i am a gearhead and i do love certain cars. I don't care if you are rich or poor, where you work, or where you don't work. I don't care about money or status. king or a begger never no mind, it is what is in your heart, what makes up your character, the things you believe in enough to stand up for, to sacrifice for. Who are you that is what i want to know, should i decide to want to know you. i am not interested in semantics and labels, i am interested in what is deep inside your soul, And that is what i am prepared to share of myself. So if your looking for easy safe surface friends or if you are such a person i am not interested. later...
