Along this journey called life, we experience strength and weakness, ups and downs, gains and losses, friends and enemies; yet wisdom is to realize that it all has its purpose, place and time. So, you see it is after facing our deepest despair that we are able to realize our greatest joy. It is our challenges that award us with knowledge. And the muddled mixed moments of doubt and confusion gives truth and clarity its radiant glow. However, to finally find the truest image of ourselves we must take the time to look beyond the surface of our existence and Search the Soul.

The Shield of Heracles is an archaic Greek epic poem that was attributed to Hesiod during antiquity. The subject of the poem is the expedition of Heracles and Iolaus against Cycnus, the son of Ares, who challenged Heracles to combat as Heracles was passing through Thessaly. It has been suggested that this epic may reflect anti-Thessalian feeling after the First Sacred War (595–585 BCE): in the epic, a Thessalian hero interfering with the Phocian sanctuary is killed by a Boeotian hero (Heracles), whose mortal father Amphitryon had for allies Locrians and Phocians.

Hay obras maestras, como el Quijote, que los autores empiezan sin plan preciso ni determinado: van haciendo de la necesidad virtud, rizando el rizo de la invención. Pero la Comedia pertenece a otra categoría: es el resultado de la deliberación y la perseverancia de Dante. Exiliado de Florencia y condenado a la hoguera, fue incluso contumaz, pues insistió en el imperdonable "error" de crear algo profundamente nuevo y personal.
