Dictator vs. Leader

A “dictator” in Ancient Rome destroyed the opposition, gave strong doses of propaganda daily, often built around a cult of personality, etc. In modern times a similar individual refers to himself as "the Leader”. Leader comes from an Old English word meaning 'to go before as a guide’, to lead the way. Now, ask yourself: ‘What is the path I want to walk on throughout my life? What destination do I wish to reach?’ Then, ask yourself if you are willing to follow the self-called “leader” wherever he takes you,  blindfolded, without ever wondering if his is the best route towards your destination, or if you would rather check where you are heading, just in case such path ends on the edge of a precipice. So, beware of any path scattered with hate, discord, division because it will bring you just there. Reflect on what your stance is in front of such a dire possibility.
