Array ( [sid] => 177825 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Chemical fruits. [time] => 2014-02-22 16:17:53 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Is it that we need more self proclaimed gurus.
Thought given away to personality, blindness given way to pseudo knowledge.
Answers to the universe given like tic tacs.
A rush of taste in the beginning, while the flavor fades to the taste of chemical fruits.

Are we more the follower then the ones brave enough to walk our own paths.
Making sure each brick in the road is a gift from another.
To afraid to carve our own rolling stones.
Lost on the already planted, we forget to weed out the invasive.
Stumbling on roads already taken, worn paths that lead to another point of view.

Can we not all guide together.
Looking out for each footing, without showing people the mistakes of their first steps.
Letting the guided hang back only lets them see the rear end of the day.
The moon before the dawn.

Can we brave this world without looking at the cheat sheets.
Instead of failing on broken examples, being the example without the need for a higher grade.
These teachers that seldom do are lining the hallways with words of wisdom to seize the now.
While not living the now of their own.
Is this not the grander scheme of the test.
To learn and not to copy.
To go beyond the taught.
With knowledge comes great power, even if that knowledge is formed on hypostasis.
Substance without the artificial.
nature at its core.

excellent write, you ask a lot of questions, no quick fix, like the chemical compound dopamine.
the general science, math, physics, could it be miss taught? ITER, fusion... why can't we understand what this fruit would bare? mix math with macro econ, remember the word economy, what the hell is that supposed to mean, right. efficiency... man, there is beauty in the workings of the most advanced animal on the planet, real intrinsic joy. where does altruism go, the diff road or the outright gift, social justice, moral compass.
science is meant to be shared.
what we get is people who can't even follow a good path due to the fact of lack of social justice.
Humans do BTW live mostly in packs, as seen from outer space. follow the resources, or, lack of efficient use of resources.
You sound with your words like you would make a great teacher.
Peace!
