what’s the big idea?

“Ideas are a dangerous thing” as the antagonist Hopper so uttered in that epic movie _A Bug’s Life_, and so it is for the few ideas person that think in the abstract and complexities of what changes the world.. just as one ant could introduce an idea to revitalize the whole ant hill, so it is with one right idea that a person could change the world! in one recent conversation, we were lamenting the fact that most people don’t think about ideas, most people aren’t attracted to ideas.. perhaps there’s some truth to the fact that many people give credence to the idea [there’s that word again] that we are mere animals acting upon our instincts.. having come across this theme in the past, an elder statesman referred me to Gorge Orwell’s _Animal Farm_ in which animals were the parable of describing human behavior among the masses.. and in the mass of humanity, we have a big bunch that are swayed by advertising and marketing and a charismatic ‘leader’, a few that are driven pragmatic leaders, and a few that are the bearers of the right ideas.. strive to be the latter.
