  1. Podcast 2581, timecode: 02:22 - 02:34, Stefan answers no. This is an example of how a no means a yes unless of course if you need to speak the absolute truth all the time or if you are a narcissist. This discussion leads to a broader, important side issue that many young and some older people grapple with: what is my purpose in life? Now the word "smart" is a very abstract, relative word that make the receiver feel uncomfortable because it seems to suggest that the one giving is compliment isn't so smart. A better, more accurate word, I think, is gifted. All of us have a gift because we are not created equal (therefore we all have a gift(s) to carry out a purpose in life.) In my opinion and religious belief, if we no longer have a purpose, or fulfilled our purpose, we would die. So dying isn't so tragic or cold. Take for instance the horrible birth defects of children in Fallujah, Iraq as a consequence of the U.S. illegal use of depleted uranium (DU) bomb shells. Some of those babies have eyes set wide apart, badly deformed hands and legs etc. Most of those defective babies will die and go to heaven. Most important is the purpose they served by being born in that condition. They have drawn worldwide attention to the false myth that the U.S. and its people are righteous, kind, humane, and peaceful people. Of course many U.S. citizens are but statistically, the slim majority of the voting public are clearly not. So Canadian Stefan, and Canadian-born, American Indian Buffy Saint Marie (the songwriter for "Universal Soldier") are clearly brave and gifted in their art of self-expression. Both champion the cause of truth and justice and come to the defense of the children, and the oppressed. My belief is that both are gifted by and serving out God will, even though Stefan is a self-proclaimed atheist. In religion, when you are on track with God's purpose, you are showered with blessings (good fortunes, good luck.) You see when you find your calling, your daily work is expressing your gifts in your art as a work in progress. Notice how Stefan eloquently weaves his language to response to a spontaneous question presented to him. Buffy does the same with her concerts and songwriting. I do the same in my line of work, driving. Once you know yourself, then match yourself with work that will let you self-express yourself through your work tasks, your work becomes a creative process that is appreciated by your audience and customers . At that point, you know you are truly free!
