When we search the annuals of history we find that "great wisdom" in many instances come from our ancestors and fore-parents. They were the pioneers and trailblazers. They were destined to dare and dis-regard "the not to go" message; and went on anyway; to where no one had ever gone before. A void existed, it was a 'wilderness world' there were no trails, there were no roads. It was their quest to carve out that original trail for themselves and others, and also to leave a luminous path for all of us to follow.
