This Is What Practical Spirit Means

Be the man kept a mystery by the result of your work embodied in a creation that, through the certain value of the represented genius, makes known to all the will of God.

In France, the frond spirit had sharpened. This could be seen even after the warmth with which the Parisians surrounded Benjamin Franklin. He had arrived in Paris in 1778 as a delegate to the United States. He was 72 years old, he was fat, bald, the nobility had been shocked by his lack of manners, while in the eyes of others his direct way of speaking and behaving, without a trace of perfidy, attracted their sympathies from the get go.

And when Louis XVI finally agreed to receive him at Versailles, the French were finally conquered. The old Yankee had defied the Bourbon protocol, going without a wig, without a sword, in the same brown coat and brown trousers he wore in the city, with his steel-rimmed glasses on his nose. His biography, known to everyone, was told as an adventure in itself, amazing, fascinating.

He had been a soap maker, printer, bookseller, swimming teacher, teller, publisher, physicist, merchant, banknote designer, writer, philosopher. He had the courage to capture lightning, inventing lightning rods, but not so much because of this “rod” that protects the cathedrals of fire better than God was he admired by the French, but for the multitude of very useful small mechanisms, which he made from nothing. Everything he undertook was immediately found out, becoming a permanent subject of admiring comment. Wasn’t the idea of making a “mechanical arm” great? Franklin had built it himself, and with its help he could take any book he wanted out of the library, from the top shelf, and bring it to the table beside him, without even getting up from his chair.

Do you give yourself all the dedication to capitalize on a receptive creation to the new, so that the living image of the thinker who comes in contact with your ego becomes a moralist of existence?

Obtaining a clear and correct opinion of human quality is essential to make a comparison between admiration and praise, these two being the means of evaluating an artist in terms of the story of his life which is as interesting as he is. The diagnosis of the relationship between creation and the spiritual valorization of life, made by uniting his image as a creator with the background of a new vision of the world, can be achieved through an in-depth analysis of the personality side of one who knows how to turn his life story into a journey towards “God’s gift”.

Although there is no firmer test for quality other than the triumph of creation that sets you free, to the joy of self-fulfillment, clearly indicating the presence of devotion to culture, to the benefit of God’s request to save the world through total change, there are many more causes and reasons that can help assign the diagnosis of “rare human vocation”.

And one of the causes is related to man’s failure to find his place and meaning in a world that seems meaningless. Therefore, he wants to change his condition as a simple man, in the story of an extraordinary man. He aspires even further than that, why should he be a mortal like all other people, when he can become immortal by what he leaves behind?

Man must make his mark on the evolution of the world, making his spiritual power develop very much on the same wave as that of the Creator of the Universe.

I ask you, reader: what is the spiritual inheritance that God has given you and that you will leave to your children?

This legacy is the very mystery of creation, the wonder of creativity and invention. Remember that, as someone rightly pointed out on the web, the world was created and given to man to transform the life of the creature into the life of divinity. Also, a miracle of God can be explained and transferred to children through the stimulation of creativity (which supports the first steps in the field of research). This especially is part of the spiritual legacy you leave to the whole world. Children must be deeply shaped by lasting spiritual values, such as enlightenment, freedom, curiosity, creativity, inventiveness, in a true journey of self-discovery.

A moralist of existence is a creator who is guided by the noble idea of progress in the name of universal values of humanity and in the service of promoting the values that define the idea of a creative approach called for progress of science and of all humanity.

This Is What Practical Spirit Means: to put faith and the creative spirit in a place of honor in the formation of a vision that will ensure progress in knowing a new reality at the level of virtue, at the level of understanding the will of God who wants to transform the world into a better place. A place of cultural, aesthetic and human dignity.
