The Cross-Roads of History – A study into the Butterfly effect

It is said the road to hell is paved with the good intentions of those who’ve undertaken the journey. But what about the one leading up to heaven? The road to heaven is paved by those who stood up against the system and challenged its Dogma. Jesus was one of those radicals who proposed a new way of looking at life.

The Forever Changing Tides of History – Sic Transit Gloria Mundi

Life is Change. Life is Immanence. And if Andrew Lloyd Weber was right to say Truth is a changing law, then what is the Rule of Life?

Sometimes you have to pull a Cortés

All new life grows from the decay of the old. Life is cyclical. We need not fight it. We must embrace change with both hands and hold it tight to our bosom. Anything else, and we merely prolong the agony.
