Goal

There is no cure for what ails human beings. We are over confident, guilt-ridden, overly curious, overly incurious, arrogant, timid, brazen and so much more. In other words, we are living contradictions of both lack and excess. Small wonder we are able to love someone else when we often deem ourselves irreparable creatures full of problems which need desperate attention.

I have observed society all my life. At first it was through the eyes of a shy child trying to fit in and now through the optics of someone who fights cynicism because they have seen behind the curtain and witnessed the inner workings of how everything truly operates.

At their root, people are afraid and insecure and we need reassurance that we matter and are worthy of love. It is the engine which drives our movements in life.

The goal is always honorable and devoid of malice even as our own lack of love of self threatens to derail us.

When their guard is down

Most people are kind.  It's when you talk to them openly and with a smile that you get to see the best of them when their guard is down....
