Often in today’s world we hear the words ‘it’s all been done before’ or ‘you can’t be unique anymore’ or the common ‘that’s the way it’s always been’.
Then we have to ask ourselves, what is the point of what we do everyday then? Why do we bother? Let’s all surrender to a banal and pointless life now.
If we have now run out of new ideas or a different imagination, then what is the future for humanity? Bleak, in all honesty, if that is the case.
Those phrases I put at the top of the page is what the system propagates, it is what we are told, you ‘can’t’. We are taught not to like change and to embrace routine, it’s easier to create compliance that way.
Well we need to start telling ourselves ‘can’ or ‘imagine’.
Imagination has been dulled to almost non-existence by the industrialised world’s brainwashing.
We need to all try to re-engage with our imaginations, let our minds run wild, think outside of the lines, have crazy thoughts, dream of a different world, dream of freedom in our minds and our lives.
Let’s break the rules, challenge the status quo, let’s rebel together, not to create lawlessness, but to create something new.
The world needs imaginative and creative thinkers to think up what hasn’t already been done, otherwise it’s a life of servitude and with very little meaning.
Imagination is a wonderful gift, that we all need to use more.
