Blind Energy
We are shot through experience of our species we cannot be labeled easily.
If we had nothing common with animals why do we qualify the legendary Richard the Conqueror as lion hearted? When we see someone whose table manners are appalling and his life style as equally messy, of which animal he calls to mind? One Ottoman sultan was called Selim the Sot for his drunkenness. He swilled wine like a porker obviously. It is rumoured that he siezed the island of Cyprus in 1570 for control over the fabled Cypriot wine!
( If nations these days go to war over oil we know experience of mankind merely put premium on things differently over the period of time.)
Experience is mixed on the same palette by the brush that makes no distinction: energy is needed by animals and angels alike to get things done. Need we then say about man, who must hold a position between and betwixt?
