zIDEALIST= “He who cherishes a beautiful vision, a lofty ideal in his heart…”

zIDEALIST= 'Architect of Heaven'

zIDEALIST= Noble-minded Visionary

If you look up the definition of visionary, you are likely to find words like, dreamer, unrealistic, impractical, wishful thinker etc.

Most of the world's greatest achievements, movements, creations and discoveries, have been born from seeds planted and watered by dreamers; those pesky little idealistic visionaries!

So, by all means let us, ”Dream lofty dreams.”

“The dreamers are the saviors of the world…
Humans are sustained by the beautiful visions of their solitary dreamers. Humanity cannot forget its dreamers; it cannot let their ideals fade and die; it lives in them; it knows them as the realities which it shall one day see and know.”

zIDEALISTS
pod is a place for idealists/visionaries (you know who you are).
Idealists make up only 8 to 10% of the population. It's a lonely job, but somebody's gotta do it. So, let's do it!

Join us and share your vision if you wish; you know – your ”unrealistic, impractical, unrealizable dream”. Who knows? Maybe the world will one day know it and recognize it. You are Inspired and Inspiring, Creative, Courageous, Unique, Passionate and so much more…

“It’s time for greatness – not for greed. It’s a time for idealism
– not ideology. It is a time not just for compassionate words,
but compassionate action.” - Marian Wright Edelman

______________________________________________________

The first time I read James Allen's book, As A Man Thinketh,
one passage struck me and buried itself deep within my gray matter. Many passages actually, but this one still resonates strongly.

“Composer, sculptor, painter, poet, sage*–these are the makers of the after-world, the architects of heaven. The world is beautiful because they have lived. Without them, laboring humanity would perish.”

*[To this list, I would add computer programmers, photographers,
writers and so on, 'cuz we/they deserve a place among the other
'makers'].

So, come on all you 'Architects of Heaven“… join us at play in the fields of zaadz.
