What is to aspire when aspiring to be greater? Simply to long for or aim to create a greater value from out of a lesser reality. Those who aspire a greater reality are the ones who have found a way to put their own egos on hold in order to fulfill a promise of a brighter future. Although ego can be utilized to perform aspirational achievements, ego is a sad excuse for motivation when the humility of selflessness is the perfect driver for the proper way to conduct one's purpose. However, getting to a vision that enhances the quality of life for all is the key and sometimes the avenue taken to get there is not the point. We humans must always remember that we represent a rich history that is still being written in the annals of time and our place within that history has yet to be defined. We can take the reins of our individual destiny and apply what is best about us or we can not and let our lives blow in the wind of selfishness and uncaring. The temptation to aspire for one's own good is great, especially when one has been trodden upon, yet those who choose to rise above their own laments of woe and instead combat and stand as a rock against those forces that created and defined their woe are the examples of humanity that make my heart know that our better days are ahead for our species since we do display the courage and honor of our best instincts. We are but a link in the chain that is pulling our species into an enlightenment that will ultimately decide the fate of our ability to control our place within this chaotic Universe. Let us keep up with each other and displace our worst characteristics in order to strengthen each of our own links in the chain.
