When was the last time you sat for months carving a great sculpture? Not lately you say? What's the problem? No time?
NOT BUILT DURING A COMMERCIAL
How did these ancient Greeks create such lasting masterpieces? First, they didn't sit around in their spare time watching soap operas or 'reality T.V.!' Their reality was being created to last centuries, not seconds!
The next time you think you have no power to leave anything for future generations, than just stay glued to that 'boob tube.'
On the other hand, if you think you really want to make an impression, make some art, write a poem, paint a picture, or take your children to see what human kind have done and can still do if they would only refuse to be 'brain washed' by modern media. Turn off the noise and make your own! We could all start by making our voices heard and having the stolen treasures of one of the World's most important architectural structures of the ancient world, returned!
The so called 'Elgin Marbles,' have been missing for too long. Greece deserves to have them back. The Acropolis would be even more spectacular.
