Ability, without acting on the ability, is perhaps a greater disability than to never have had the ability.
If another is in need, and I do not help -I have so wasted an opportunity to exercise my ability, and in doing so, I have given up my ability. I am without ability.
A few create the system.
Many perpetuate the system.
Some work the system.
Too few challenge the system.
History shapes us.
Culture enables us.
Humanity entitles us.
Choice defines us.
I am as much a product of my own choice as I am of genetics or environment.

The Strong have no more intention of tearing you down than do the Weak of building you up.
Do what you gotta do to be who you oughtta be.
A victim is snared in a trap that is set by himself.

In aphorism, proverb on 2011/10/18 at 13:57
Love accepts you for all that you are (in spite of all that you are not) and challenges you to be all that you can be (in spite of all that you could be).
Apologies cannot be demanded, only accepted.
One need not beware to be aware.
The fool beware, the wise are aware.
To love freely is not enough; one must love truly.
