If I'm not at home, accepting what I can't change, then I'm probably out, changing what I can't accept.- Ashleigh Brilliant

If you’re a good citizen, you always do what the government expects.

What fundamental components have made up and currently make up most societies? What happens if one of those components is skewed or absent?


 * If a fundamental component is missing or skewed, then a good citizen will try to fix that. it may not be what the government expects, but a good citizen will make the government good. Get out there and fix it, don't sit around waiting for someone else to. Change your life for the better. Seize the day and live life.**

=**//__Poem__//**= from the richness of your [|visions] out of your own [|head] give external reality to your [|ideas] even if they are imperfectly copied

let every man make known, what is once well done is well done [|forever] there is no matter too weighty to be handled there is cause enough to resist all present corruptions you could be honest too if you'd only try

and when introducing their important business Makes thee to shudder and grow [|sick at heart], go forth determined to chase away the [|strange cloud] publish its meanness to the world A single man can bend it to his will

then you can silently [|meditate] upon the remodelled, different arrangement of the particulars and not cease to be an inhabitant of the [|better sphere] that lies unseen around us.  for society everywhere is in conspiracy against the manhood of every one of its members.  Thus Whoso would be a man must be a [|nonconformist.]  A man knows to detect and watch that gleam of [|light] which flashes across his [|mind] from within And  gather [|immortal palms]

each [|human trace] aspires to the honor of fully partaking of the prevailing wonder of lavishing their lives and fortunes for the establishment of this freedom

life should become of importance only as conditional to this accomplishment and by the endeavour, you shall be a better and a happier man than you otherwise would have been if you had not attempted it.

The morning [|wind] forever blows, the poem of creation is uninterrupted; but few are the ears that hear it take your own course and don't torture your [|soul] with the bitterness of worldly criticism

lose thyself in the powerful effort to chase your [|favorite phantom] from the richness of your visions out of your [|own head] and give external reality to your ideas The artist of the beautiful will breathe after his own fashion , emerge from the gloom of the [|cloudy evening], turn the sun out of its orbit and derange the whole course of [|time] just to create an [|alternate dusk] throw your influence over the [|whole world] both in light and darkness, in solitude and before the [|gaze] of multitudes, and as with strangers, so with familiar friends

The millions are awake enough for physical labor, but only [|one in a million] is awake enough for effective intellectual exertion, only one in a [|hundred millions] to a poetic or divine life. To be awake is to be [|alive]. are you alive again, a child of the sun and playmate of the [|summer breeze]?

catch hold of life drive it into a [|corner] for it will dog you until death and [|time] should not be trifled with remember God himself culminates in the present moment

for the weary ages may pass away the world's, whose [|life sand] may fall, drop by drop until nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind. chase the [|flitting mystery] beyond the verge of his ethereal domain so that all the harsh dissonances of life might be rendered tuneful

If you would hate to have to perish in this deplorable folly of sagacious understandings who think that life should be regulated remember that strength is an [|earthly monster] and hard, brute force darkens and confuses the spiritual element within you you should perish, busied in earnest endeavours to alleviate the deplorable folly and striving to put the very [|spirit of beauty] into form and give it motion
