Creativity fuels the conscious mind as oil lights the fire. We are always taught growing up that we mustn't be selfish in our actions. But isn't the core of Ayn Rand's existentialism to be selfish? To follow absolute inhibition is to be selfish. It is not always a negative aspect of humanity as we have been led to believe. Returning from Black Rock City this year left me with an unfulfillable void of creativity. Why can't the "default world" be as creative?
Let me reiterate my prior notion:
WHY CAN'T WE HAVE MERMAIDS HANGING OVER BEDS INSIDE OF A LASER BUS ALL THE TIME?
...or play with a mile of LED helium-filled balloons?
... or build viking ships to light on fire?
... or build geodesic wooden teardrops for people to climb?
... or stack ice cubes on top of each other with LED lights behind?
... or stand on top of the world like Superman?
... or become one with our mercaba, the energy field that surrounds each and everyone of us?!
.... or build a wooden tunnel fish?
.... or warm our souls from the cold night with a copper fireplace tower?
But I think you get it at this point. So let's revel in our weirdness. Life is too short to not express yourself to the fullest extent.
Peace, love and good vibes to all the fellow dreamers out there,
J.
