And on the third day he prose again...

Bad pun, strong sentiment.

I'm not much for activism, but I'm a huge fan of inspirational thought. I'm a thinker more than I'm a talker, and I'm a talker much more than I'm an doer. I've voted once in my entire life, and I'm proud of my vote. I knew more about that particular election than most people did. It was a Presidential primary. I left the city of New Orleans during the Mardi Gras festivities in order to return to my then home state and vote for a person who I already knew would not win the nomination since Super Tuesday had taken place on Mardi Gras itself. It was important. It meant something. I truly believed in my choice.

I choose that story as an example of inspiration because (a) I had never voted before, nor have I voted since for that matter, and (b) it's true inspiration simply because I left something I was very inclined to do to do something I was not at all inclined to do. That's what I think true inspiration is...something that bridges the gap between occasional thought and determined action. This is a tribute to inspiration, in whatever form it may take in your life.


If I thought therefore I was,
then what was it I thought?
I think the thinker thinks along
the actions he does not.

Your tendencies are what you do
when true to inclination
To make the thinker start to do
requires inspiration.

When thinking's simply not enough
to satiate....and more
And the voice inside that drives
seems to be much more than yours

The time has come to act
in whichever way you ought
Because just being human is not being
without the step beyond just thought.
