Well first of i have been quite busy for some time now which explains the lack of posts.Anyway there are so many distinct and disjointed subjects on which i would like to start of this post with so i am just going to take a deep breath and start of with the first topic which strikes me..!!
Well i am listening to "Imagine" by John Lennon and i am suddenly remembering the Spongebob episode about imagination!!Well for those of you who don't watch Spongebob this episode is where Spongebob tells a rather disgruntled Squidward that anything is possible with imagination(It really does not sound so boring when you watch it... honest!!)
Now i for one certainly think this statement is pretty accurate.Please don't misunderstand this statement..what i am saying is we are what we imagine ourselves to be(at least in our minds).And that i feel is the most important thing.
Imagination can manifest itself in many ways...Happiness,Confidence,sorrow,anger,greed and a lot of other very interesting emotions.What we perceive to be the world around us is what we really imagine it to be.The desk i see in front of me is accepted to be white by everyone who looks at it,but then how is one to know that the white i see is the same as the white the other person sees.I mean all off it is what i imagine to be white.Most of what i am saying here is closely related to perception.Now what have perception and imagination got to do with each other??Everything.Think about it what is the difference between the two???Now don't go giving me the dictionary meaning.Perception itself is a result of imagination.reality is just that imaginary perception which we think is accurate.Am i really the person i think i am or is it just my imagination which is making me believe in this "personality" of mine??!!
These are question which can probably never be answered because the questions are so much a part of the person we imagine ourselves to be.So any answer has the inherent problems which led to the questions in the first place.So what do we do??
Well i cant talk for others,but i am going to embrace this imaginary reality or realistic imagination of my life and live it as my future imagination comes along in its own pace,in its own style.
But i will know this: whenever there is that news about"Humans finally discovering ET" or "Liverpool finally win the league"(Sorry but i just could not resist that temptation :p) i will be assured by my mind that all this reality is just a figment of my imagination.Or If it comforts you Perception.So till we imagine an end lets keep imagining shall we.
