On Purpose and Conscience

Written by Dixie Flatline

I am so turned off on watching violence, but this one sequence of dialog from Rambo 4 sums up how I feel half of the time.

“There isn’t one of us that doesn’t wanna be someplace else.  But this is what we do, this is who we are.  Live for nothing, or die for something.”

Here is another good one, this time from Aaron Russo,

“You have to stand up for what is right in life, unless you do that, you’re a nothing.”

I believe that the calling of everyone with a conscience, is to leave the world better than they found it.  YMMV

    Great words indeed.
    The few of us, that care to understand what they mean,
    ought it to humanity, to make sure that we wake up as many as we can.
