Why great creative minds were lovers of male beauty?

"O boy, with virgin-glancing eye, I call thee, but thou dost not hear; Thou know'st not how my soul doth cry For thee, its charioteer."



I am enthralled with the creations of Michelangelo, today is his birthday, on this day I thought to highlight his finest creations and his inclinations would be true justice to his memory. A free mind is a creative mind, consequently art is a rarity in a theocratic society, a closed mind cannot craft. It looks as if emancipation from peripheral restraints of desires releases new energies that we all frown upon. Pent-up humans, timid and powerless to articulate are product of a closed society. Music, art, conception and ingenuity, and vision die in a closed society. Expression without fear is the foundation of a great civil society; ?constitution? in a closed society remains a dormant document where free expression of wills is detested. Unwrapped expression of inner most vulgarities and mischievous sprite create and ensure greatness of minds. Enlightenment is only possible where expression has no limits, where desires are expressed honestly. Manifest honesty means zilch if hearts are blackened. Sometime introverts and cowards carrying burden of sins owe it to the great open minds of history to highlight those details of their rich life that helped create the heritage that we all proudly share as heritage of mankind. This heritage was created in societies that allowed dissent and freedom of carnal action. We may disagree with the action but their ability to openly practice what they believed was basic raison d'?e of most of these great enterprising creations which we proudly term as a human cultural heritage. It is nice to see that those who left this rich heritage behind were mere mortals and no sacred man or prophets.

Idea of the Day

The world would be happier if men had the same capacity
to be silent that they have to speak.
