“I speak for all mediocrities in the world. I am their champion. I am their patron saint. On their behalf I deny Him, your God of no mercy. Your God who tortures men with longings they can never fulfill. He may forgive me: I shall never forgive Him.” Antonio Salieri in Amadeus
Why have I always realized that the back wall of the problems I face usually lies in Mediocrity?
Perhaps because I’ve always seen it as the major negative force that drives people to jealousy, hatred and even wars. I’ve seen that problems usually arise from those mediocre minds either because they have came into power and trying to make up for all the time gone that people looked down upon them, yet deep down, they know how mediocre they are. This turns them to wear masks of power, evil, ego, status, class, money, and you name it, many others. Each mask abuses the other mask and sometimes they are worn interchangeably. Look today at anyone who is causing a problem, it would usually integrate at the end to someone trying hard to cover up for their mediocrity. I’ve met very rich, educated and powerful men, who were so mediocre and very poor, illiterate and peaceful others who were very extraordinary. The continuum is full in the middle between those two extremities. Sometimes, the masks join together to create a mass of mediocre destruction thinking that a collective movement of whatsoever cures their mediocrity.
As Copernicus said about his Mediocrity Principle, “the Earth is not in a central, specially favoured position”. I think we can remove “the Earth” and put “I, You”…and it would be the real mere reality that all is scared to face it; “I am not in a central, specially favoured position”… Reflecting cosmologically further on who is the central, specially favoured position, I came up with a modified similar answer of Copernicus who said that the Sun is the central.
The Sun or the Son?
It is the Son…
He is in the central, specially favoured position…
He is the cure to our all mediocrities.
Living with the Son turns us from mediocre minds to being the center of His universe.
The Earth is not mediocre because it is part of the Sun’s Galaxy.
You are not mediocre because you are part of the Son’s Universe.
That should remind you that Mediocrity is a Sin…
