The ideal is always the popular of the times, as i see it, but as time changes , so does the Ideal, Some of us are contented trying to improve the same old ideal with new expressions that keeps it viable, yet at times we try to brake all the rules by attempting to move the Ideal to another level. Some succeed, and others fail. What we all have in common is our attempt to be unique in our expressions
