“If you are inside of something, say an atom, you only see electrons whirling chaotically around you. If you moved outside the atom you would see those electrons moving with a pattern around the atom. If you rise further above you see that atoms are actually the building blocks of larger structures called molecules. And so it goes, on up the scale, ad infinitum. The ever familiar ‘forest from the trees’ syndrome. It’s all a matter of perspective. True creativity is allowing yourself to gain the loftiest perspective you can in relation to the object of your quandary or inquiry.”

– J.L. Read

For the dreamers, keep dreaming. Aged five, my little cousin parroted from his nursery school teacher, “…anything you can imaginate, you can create.” Bad grammar aside, this remains the sovereign rule. I really believe no one else ‘gets it’, because no two people dream the same, at the same time. So when someone responds to your dream with a disparaging, “Dream on!”, you better answer with a “Hell yeah!”…if for nothing else, to watch the confusion skittle between both eyes and land tremulously on their lips.

“Whatever we imagine is real.”-Pablo picasso
