Art and Archery

Carve out a niche in Plato's Cave

POST: July 29, 2019

Art and Archery, shooting over the Bow, the Tip of the Spear and the Strength in Sacrifice to Rise in Timeless Success...

Please People put a Powerful Philosopher into the present as was once hailed in the distant past? Philosopher King? Why is society stimulated by stirring the political pot, hiking up heat to temperatures creating carcinogenic thought on tips of tongues in boiling conjecture, taste buds tantalized with quick fix threads, blindly wading in churning currents of organized chaos and confusion. I conclude contemporary disruption derangement syndrome requires guidance from philosophers and past leaders’ paths, mistakes made, and sacrifices that represent their success.

Creative solution: carve out a niche in Plato's Cave (get return on recollection), Soul search with Socrates (go beyond to sense), dive into the deep end of "Veritas" at the Dawn of Democracy (check-mark choice), ponder Pythagorean problem solving to prove the point to push out of the depth and rise up to buoyancy, then see positive in the prone position, float on your back, look up, see clear blue sky for all.

Take time to be your own personal philosopher - every bird in nature requires two wings to fly, every brain has two sides, yin and the yang exist.
