This weekend marks the 154th birthday of Nikola Tesla. A man that has shaped this world more than we will ever know as most of his work and patents were all locked away as classified.
For me he is an example of what is possible and if those around you think you are crazy in your dedication then you are probably on the right track.

Life's Purpose
This was generously given to me to post its part of a discussion between two friends on the path. I hope it inspires all who read it as much as it does me.
Thank you Chris.
The Purpose of Life - Why are we here?
Life's purpose is for humanity to integrate the sum total of knowledge and objectivity in order to evolve beyond the suffering, cruelty, mystic exploitation and coercion, overcome disease, end poverty, eliminate war, ultimately to extend life, whereby civilization’s great minds may live to continue discovery and guide following generations in the first person, onto exponential creative intelligence. If Leonardo da Vinci, Mozart, Sir Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein and Martin Luther King were alive today, think of the world we would now abound in. Life is ever-fulfilling unless it is ended before it’s time.

A response from Gil:
wonderfully lucid and resonant. I could not agree more…. this is so similar to writing from you that I have saved regarding the role of the warrior/guardian in society, not to be a tool of political ambitions or a simple watch dog at the border… but rather be the protector of sanity, reason, intellect, growth, art and all else that elevates humanity forward. We put out the fire when the hordes come to burn the library, we fight for the freedom of expression even when our sensibilities are singed, we spark youth with dreams and passions of the hopeful future and nurture the slow march from Man to Humane…."
