Another family
When an individual discovers that his most intimate ideas
had already been expressed by the art (either writing, painting or music) of a
long gone artist, a revelation occurs which is hard to put into words… a noble
soul will experience love for himself and for his fellow ancestor, for
mankind’s highest and loftiest legacy and he will be thankful for having had
the privilege of sharing a glance into such exclusive ideas. It proves to him
that the thinking human will never be alone in his ambition for a godlike
vision. Distant echoes will always accompany him, encouraging the search for
the truth to go further and further. In his turn, the thinking individual hopes
that his own search will echo through generations to come. It is as if one
would hope to reach the rightful pursuer of humanity’s greatest treasure hunt,
an inheritance which is bestowed only upon a selected few and occupies a
dimension which is far more select than the basic instincts and goes beyond any
blood relations. This is real love, out of which all love is born.
A marketer or philistine will not rejoice in the discovery
that others have had the same idea as he has just had. He will hate the creator
for being so precocious and himself for being too late in grabbing all the
glory and profit. If the majority is ruled by this base desire to posses, to
own exclusively and to find shortcuts over graves towards their petty,
gregarious ambitions, then their monstrous propaganda for their future
generations will render such virtues as patience, loyalty or reverence as
foolish defects. In the end, even love will live inside a pill… which they will
be happy to sell.

If I were to argue that reproduction is in a way, the
human’s ambition for immortality and the fathers want to see in their children a
better version of themselves, than the creator, as a human, probably has the
same ambition on behalf of his father, namely God. His legacy is of a divine
nature and it is the only one which keeps God hoping that we will soon join Him…
I guess His own immortality feels like a burden when He experiences it all
alone.
