Why so few?

Amazing beings

Where are they?

Are there any?

Plenty of photogenic smiling posers

Plenty of bullshit artists

However it seems there are few if any really amazing beings

Every time we think we have found one we also find out his or her hidden flaws

Big sigh until the next time

Maybe we need instead to think for a moment

Will there ever be plenty of amazing beings?

Or like seeds will only one in many hundreds of thousands take root?

And then again what does the amazing being bring?

Example

Morality

Strength

Courage

So really if we have one every few hundred years or so maybe that's more realistic

And of course the big feature of the really amazing being is the ideas they bring

Buddha, Christ are remembered for their ideas

Ideas that transcend time

Ideas that resonate within all of us

Ideas that do not go away

So maybe they are always with us the truly great beings

For sure they are

They never go away nor do their ideas

It is us who go away

We who do not want or have the courage to follow their ideas

Instead of whining about their absence

Let's get honest and admit it is us who went away

So instead of crocodile tears

Live your own life to their values

Nothing changed

Only your reluctance to acknowledge and live by their message and ideas

No more sighing it's in you not out there somewhere

Their ideas are always with us

Simply stated love and compassion are the basis of all they bring

Not so hard to take on board really

More difficult to live it though

Is your life lived in love?

Or is it in fear?

Heard it all before?

Then maybe this time is your time

We hope so
