Meet Theo Jansen, a Kinetic Sculptor:
This man is truly inspirational. I was captivated from the first second of this video!
I believe **everybody** is given the same amount of energy, and that before one's life is over, that energy will be and must be spent.
This gentleman is a great example of a person who has chosen, on a daily basis, to use the energy that was given to him in ever-increasingly creative and beautiful ways.
Our brains are in a fluid state, so-to-speak. Some people think (or they are to lazy to think about it at all!) that the information that is in their minds is there on a permanent basis. (Watching 'Brain Games'on NatGeo should change their minds, but it probably won't):

Like our brains, our energy is never static. It doesn't stand still. Our energy will be used - either for good or for bad purposes. Someone will win. Someone will lose. There are no 'in-betweens', and we can't call a stalemate.
The people that ARE reading this comment are great examples of me "preaching to the choir."
The people that need to read my comment will be the same people that will not do so because I don't want most of those individuals any where near me. A few of them have slipped past the super-sensitive radar that I use to screen out lazy, bitter, uncreative, destructive individuals who do nothing to make the world a better place before they make their exit. They're too lazy (or guilty!) to read this, so they won't get this far, either! It's much like offending an Amish person on TV. Due to several beliefs, they can't watch TV, so they wouldn't see the offense in the first place. Ya know?
