If only we can talk to the dead. If only we can still be in touch with authors who passed away.
One author I wanna call is George Orwell. I wonder what would he say about the revolutions of the Arab world. I want to tell him that we learned. It took us half a century, but better late than never. As in the Animal Farm, last century our revolutions were led by pigs. Now we, the animals, have risen once again to liberate our farms from the pigs. This time we have no leaders. We are one. ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL, PERIOD.

Secodnly: speaking to the living is far more effective in creating progress.
It is LISTENING to the dead that we may learn from...if we indeed just listen and 'hear'.
Last but not least: I don't think we are all equal: those who care for others and want to improve and better the lives of others are leaders.It sets us apart from pigs! Leaders do not have to be despots or criminals. They can be like a good, caring parent.
Unfortunately the good leaders often don't have the guts to stand up for others.
Animal Farm was indeed last century - let's reshape THIS one!
It sounds like you have some good ideas and interests. I hope life will be more positive and joyful - and spread THAT - for you!!
