Synopsis "Whispers of Inspiration"
PrefaceHaving lived for more than seven decades on this planet and having traveled extensively around the world;Having experienced the joys and the sorrows life offers to people and having studied and taught human nature; Having witnessed our wonderful planet dying slowly and its forests and animals vanishing rapidly And finally, Having observed the persistence of Man on walking on the path that, unfailingly, leads to the obliteration of his world and even of his own existence . . .I have decided to raise my voice and, in my humble way, try to bring to the attention of the reader things that he / she, himself / herself has experienced and learned in his / her passage through life and to ask him / her to join forces so as we, together, fight to avert, if possible, the upcoming catastrophe.The core of the problem Man faces today, as I perceive it, is a moral one, and that is why we must turn our attention toward it, analyze it once more, and try to offer solutions, no matter what our nationality, creed or color is because we should always remember that the future of humanity is common to each one of us! The writing of this book is the result of the moral obligation I feel and each one of us ought to feel toward maintaining our Lord's creation, including Man, animals, plants, rivers and oceans. The totality of things though can never be maintained if the condition of the parts is not harmoniously balanced. By the same token, humanity cannot live in peace unless we first have found peace in our hearts.Only if we all put the common good above the personal one and care for one another, only then could we create a better, kinder, nobler and more loving world. This implies, of course, that we become better, kinder, nobler and more loving ourselves. The answer to all our problems is love! Love toward Man, toward nature, toward animals, toward the totality of things; for, love is unity and unity is God's work. So, let all of us whisper love, for there is no more thunderous voice than the whisper of love!Demetrios Trifiatis Ph.D., PhilosophyAuthor of Lessons Life Taught Me andCo-Author of An Aegean Breeze of Peace
