The problem is that in order to move others many times it is not the righteous intent that becomes the energy that overcomes inertia and apathy.<br />Radicalism with compassion, radicalism where an there is an insistence that ears and eyes are open to all the wonder an horror of the world is a requirement.....<br />Oh and then there is justice, and there is a difference between justice and fairness. where equality and reason are untempered.<br />In the same fashion as the Navajo, the pueblos, and some of the cultures of the east there is always a stitch left undone, a spot unpainted. Tradition steeped in the knowledge that we are not complete nor perfect except in our acknowledgment of the infinite and our desire to achieve perfection. I see our political situation similar in that the founders of the present Republic left to the future many vague areas where we as the heirs of the experiment must find answers. I look forward to continuing a dialogue as I believe, though you have a differing perspective we have a similar center and a common interest in truth and clarity.Naradahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04152176340748954004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6059095776066394557.post-63680153805021715712010-08-08T11:53:24.615-06:002010-08-08T11:53:24.615-06:00Thanks for another thoughtful, interesting post.
