Creativity, in its rawest and purest forms comes in times when we are engaged in the creative process to the extent of being unaware of our selves. That expresses an interesting fact about the manner in which human beings create: Creativity is something that we, no matter how much we believe ourselves capable, are utterly incapable of commanding at will. Anyone who ever felt the need for a muse, for inspiration, would know. The other thing about creativity is that its companion is emotion. Our greatest moments of creativity and expression often take us by surprise, because they often come to us at times when we have entered into a state of heightened emotion, and are as such, are not really contemplating or thinking about 'being creative', just feeling the emotion. Therein lies point number three: The worth of creative expression, be it art, music, writing, or even just the verbal communication of an idea, always comes down to the ability of that expression to evoke an emotional response, a feeling, in both the creator and the one witnessing/listening/reading the expression.

Creative expression, even if it be only a mental formation of an idea or vision, is not a futile expression if it acheives feeling in any measure for either the creator or the person who perceives and cognitively processes that expression. This is because creativity is something that comes to us, it is not something we call up. To be creative is the opposite of being destructive. And if you agree with that, then you may also agree that to be creative, by virtue of being the opposite of being destructive, implies being good, and not evil.

This is not to say that if you are good you will be creative, in the same way that while a square is a rectangle, a rectangle is not a square. Goodness is the foundation of creativity. And that much is enough to actually render every human being a creative entity, in so far as we are all capable of appreciating that which moves us. So be happy in knowing that you are capable of smelling the flowers, thinking of a song to sing to your woman, and making her breakfast. That, my friend, is creative, and more so if you mean it. For creativity loves no emotion more than love. When love renders us ecstatic, creativity is there to aid our expression, as it is when we are pained by love.

The power of contemplation coupled with concentration is perhaps a good illustration of the human, the internal equivalent, of antimatter. Anyone who read Dan Brown's "Angels and Demons" will know a little bit about antimatter, if not, run a "define: antimatter" search on Google.
Contemplation upon something, anything, in a concentrated fashion, is the only thing that enables progress, and it is at the same time the only thing that enables stagnation and retardation. How? One cannot execute a course of action calculated to do good or evil without having contemplated upon the act, and having concentrated, in whatever manner, upon its execution. It is the same thing that enables the execution of a successful political campaign, the implementation of positive and negative policies, development of technological marvels and weapons of destruction, military coups and bloodless dictatorial regime, or blood filled democratic regimes, sensual pleasure, and spritual upliftment.
So where does human emotion fit into the whole scheme of things? Emotion is that internal compass of ours that is ever so unreliable at times and ever so reliable at other times. It is that cognitive interface with the heart of us that allows us to experience the depths and highs of what it is to be human. Presence of emotion is presence of fallibility, and it is what makes us what we so bearably are, for without emotion, what can we hope to acheive but winter? So dont feel bad if what seems like a bad decision made under the seeming influence of emotions seems to turn out bad for you. A decision is only repurcussive upon you in a negative sense if you allow it to be. There is nothing, absolutely nothing in this world from which we cannot learn something good. Evil itself exists for the purpose of articulating the antithesis of good, so that we may be able to actually appreciate the qualities of goodness in the proper way.
It is very important never to stop questioning our purpose in life, no matter how puzzling, seemingly futile or irritating the exercise may be. For what are we without purpose? Our purpose, first and foremost, should always be to allow ourselves to be happy. How that happens for each of us will inevitably be different, but the fact remains that every man woman and child ever born bears in them, by virtue of being human, the ability to be happy. And if the ability exists, surely the means to bring that ability to fruition exist. It is a question of letting go of the things that you feel bogged down by, giving your mind a break, and letting your hapiness meter reading become a function of not how your mind is feeling, but how your unencumbered your spirit feels. If that attitude can be adopted, then it becomes a question of doing the things that unencumber your spirit. Doing is the only thing that holds worth, thinking about it without acting is folly, and it is a crime we are all without exception guilty of. But each day we have the chance to be happier than we were yesterday, and that opportunity, in itself, is worth more than we imagine.

The one thing leaders must be worthy of, is emulation based on faith in their character and in their ability to lead; to govern. Therefore, it is critical for us, the governed, to make the critical assessment as to who is, and who is not, worthy of emulation for their ability to lead and govern. If we fail in this capacity for want of time or the seeming futility of it; we are every bit as worthy of unsound or, worse, absent governance, by those that capitalize on such states of affairs to become elected heads unworthy of being called ‘leaders’. That state of affairs will worsen until destiny herself will weep at the state she must impose upon humanity; and it will be as ordained before the first man drew the first breath. And what then? A new dawn perhaps, or a change of will in the Omniwill. Eternal darkness upon this plain may not be such a bad thing if it leads to an amplification of the light of the One. For then the one will be eternally whole again. And to think, creation began with, and will end with, the Omniwill desiring as much.

Seasons past bore witness to man's promise and folly, as seasons future will. What has been will be forgotten and what is to be will remain a distant memory for those who are yet to come. Evil and dark deeds will be done by humans veiling them in the shroud of secrecy whilst preaching good. Nature will witness and beseech in her own way man to stop, and yet why would we listen to the voice that has proven itself too dim in the face of temptation?

At this time in the human race, we have perhaps never had more reasons to question the collective purpose of our existence in the universe. Is it for science or religeon or a grand amalgm of the two that would lead us to a place where we no longer yearn in light of our own contentment? Or is that a place we will never reach?

Faith. Belief. Desire for salvation. Desire for satiation. Pleasure. Pain. Duality. Unity. To what hope can we entrust a desire for unity? Perhaps only that we may be the best human beings we can be, and that we may live our lives in a manner such that those touched by our lives may have their faith in the goodness of mankind reinforced.
