Day 3: Imagine, and then believe

Today I am thinking about imagination.

I'm imagining a universe where there are no limits, where nothing is impossible, unlikely maybe, but not impossible.

I'm imagining thousands of different lifeforms, some humaniod, others, well, not so much. Energy lifeforms, beings of all shapes and sizes. Some encompass the size of a planet, while others are smaller than a grain of sand.

I'm imagining a universe where time is not a straight line, but is rather like a big ball, with past, present, and future all happening at the same time, and that there are beings out there that can see time in just that way, experiencing every moment of time in a fraction of a second, and yet to them, it seems there is no such thing as "time" at all.

I'm imagining humans one day realizing that they are not just bags of meat crawling on the surface of a relatively small, blue planet. I imagine them reaching out to the stars, exploring their own galaxy, discovering many other worlds, and the creatures that live upon them. I imagine them finding their true existence, as beings of spiritual energy, and then seeing the universe in a way no physical being could ever see it.

The things we could learn, the incredible amount of information that is yet discovered, I imagine us driven to always find out more, to better ourselves, to become more than we are. I imagine the whole of creation, out there for us to discover, never ending, there is no one being that knows all. We will learn together, as a collective, sharing the things we discover, and always striving to see more, do more, and be more.

I imagine that one day, we will break free of ourselves, our lust for material gain, our petty differences, and our mundane everyday lives, and start to imagine what's out there, and what possibilities await us, if we only believe.

It has been said that "Imagination is more important than knowledge", but I'd like to amend that, and say that "Imagination leads to knowledge".

If you can imagine it, you can believe it's possible, there is no law that says something can't be possible. Our thoughts create our existence, so what you believe becomes what you can perceive. Believe in your imagination, and there's no telling where it will take you.
