We must have something to keep, something as ours. Not everything belongs to the world.
Our virginity is what we have left. For others, it is their undefiled thoughts. Still others their works are cleaned of corruption.
We must have something we hold above contempt. It may be your heart or eyes that is not given to beholding evil.
It cannot be that there is nothing of us left other than what is common to all.
We must have virgin ideas, virgin inventions. We must remain virgin in our decisions, planning and even in our actions.
We must do what is yet to be done and exploited, what has not been dared or tried yet?
When we lose our virginity when we break that little thread between originality and being like everyone else, have we not been lost even to ourselves and to the world? We can't find us in us and nor the world.
We must stay wholly intact, really significant and truly different. We must remain us for our identity, for our contribution and for our family's sake.
Nothing is really us if we are part of the whole without us. We should rather die than blend in. God could have created a blend but he created you. It means unique and different.
Imagine the orchestra without the unique sounds. Your contribution is useless if you still sound like others. Sound like you. Be a virgin. And stay such.
