Through the ages we have not carried ourselves to a state of abject awareness.

We have endured, we have lead, we have followed to no avail.

Timidity does not concur neither does brawn when it forces dissension within humanities ranks.

We can be forced to follow and we can be forced to lead but in the end we stand alone directionless and despondent, half the soul we intend to aspire.

Glory is within us all and usually does not surface as we desire it or require it.
