Imagine

We are as humans all bestowed with the a gift – imagination.

This is a gift that we have truly taken for granted and lost the realisation of just how monumentally important it is to our very survival.

Yet the system strives hard to get us to suppress that gift, it scares the system, as if we were all to use it to it’s full potential, well we might just imagine a world without the people who control us. We might just imagine a world where we do not need a tiny few controlling and manipulating us.

If it was not for imagination, the human race would still be hunter/gatherers. We have dared to imagine so many things, yet here we are in the 21st century and so few of us now dare to imagine better, different, new.

Fear and conditioning (sounds like a bad shampoo) have paralysed us from using our imaginations. We have become so frightened of others judging us, so afraid of ridicule and so lacking in adventure. We live in fear of all the rules and regulations.

If the human race does not imagine, then the human race will die.

Don’t do as I do, do as your told.

In life we often expect others to do things, that we are not prepared to do ourselves.

Don’t do as I do, do as your told. This sentiment is a perfect summary of that.

It is important to be the example to others of what you want to see.

The thing to be maybe consider is, trying to control others is a futile exercise, and therefore, it is better to focus entirely on our own behaviour. Then perhaps that will inspire others to want to be like that too. However, that is none of our business, other people’s behaviour is their business.

After all, right or wrong is all opinion.

I think that is better to do what you feel is right and skip the telling others, as I reckon no one likes to be told.
