Carpe Diem

"Only in their dreams can men be truly free. 'twas always thus and always thus will be."
Carpe Diem. 
Nothing more than false hope and the possibility it promises, as real as, cars of sand. 
A call to act on boundless ambition inspires the populus, 
however, 
let you be reminded it is the same "tragic flaw" of hubris that has caused the demise of many men. 

Ambition caused Icarus to fly to close to the sun, 
he found the reality of Carpe Solem. 
Perhaps, same way man shall find the reality of Carpe Diem.

Ego

"I have never seen a greater monster or miracle in the world than myself."
Ego. 
It is this that makes or breaks a man. 
Ego, much like the "dagger of the mind", pushes man to do things, it thought impossible.
It has been the blade on which many a man has died; 
And it has been the step on which many men have  reached the summit of their being. 

It was Hitler's ego that pushed  him to the brink of achieving Nazi dominantion, 
It was Hitler's ego that pushed him to initiate Operation Barbarossa. 
It was Hitler's ego that caused his rise,
It was Hitler's ego that caused his demise. 

It is a double edged blade where both sides draw blood, 
but neither are ever satisfied. 

If religion says, ego is the reason man shall perish.
I say, ego is the reason man flourished.
