What A Talent This Man Possesses!

Is the talent that this man possesses his doing or is it naturally gifted? Is it fair to say that if this talent is his doing, he deserves to keep the money he makes through such demonstration of the talent but if the talent is naturally gifted then he deserves to share the advantages/money he makes with those who are least gifted? Well, Michael Winslow is the name of this talented person.  And this is what John Rawls would say about the question raised above. The fact that Mr. Winslow lives in an age that prizes such demonstration is not his doing nor is it his doing that he was not born in Egypt in 2500 BC that would never provide him the chance to be famous. The kind of society that allows him to perform in TV or hears about effect/guitar is not his doing either. Since he happened to be living in a time such as this, he cannot claim exclusively for himself the advantages or privileges that accrue to him. He must therefore share the fruit of his talent with those who are least gifted. I do think Rawls has a point there. If we examine in detail how we have arrived  where we are now we may in for a surprise. The family we are born into; the society that prizes the career we have opted; the value system that society engenders etc are beyond our control. We just happen to reap the favourable conditions contingent factors have brought about. This should not totally undermine the willful decisions we have made. But one should not also undermine the other factors which are not our doing. This reality situates us in the position where failing to share the privileges we enjoy now with those who are least advantaged becomes a kind of injustice. And injustice is injustice. And we humans are made to continue living an unjust life.THE TAKE HOME LESSON IS THIS: WHETHER YOU ARE AN ENGINEER OR A DOCTOR OR A MANAGER, SHARE YOUR EARNINGS AND PRIVILEGES WITH THOSE WHO ARE LEAST PRIVILEGED.

  1. Good day to you all.. I'm here to share my experience to everybody all around the world because I know that someone out there needs this today. I've been with my girlfriend for 3 years and everything was fine with us that we don't have to fight or quarrel for anything. My girlfriend got a new job and after 2 months of her new job, I noticed some changes in her. Few weeks before my birthday, my girlfriend broke up with me for another man. I never expected such from her. I was in severe pain and needed help urgently. I searched for help online and found Lord Zakuza who is a spell caster. I told him everything I was going through and he understood me well. He told me that he will prepare a love spell for me that will get my girlfriend back within 48 hours and he explained to me how it was going to be done and I agreed. He prepared the love spell for me and my girlfriend returned back to me begging me for forgiveness within 48 hours. I was shocked and happy and I accepted her back.. We are back together and everything is going fine. I want to thank Lord Zakuza for his help by sharing this testimony online for other people to find help too in any area of their lives. Get in touch with him with the below details.. For he's good at what he does.
