“If you don’t know where you are going any road can take you there” ― Lewis Carroll
Alice wandered around wonderland for awhile, not knowing where she was going. She experienced extraordinary wonders beyond belief, but she didn’t know what they all meant.
She didn’t know where she was going – she didn’t have a planned destination, so that is exactly what she experienced in wonderland.
Once you realize your dream, keep them with you. Your dreams are roadmaps on route to your destination, and they are yours for a reason.
“Amateurs let adversity defeat them. The pro thinks differently. He shows up, he does his work, he keeps on truckin’, no matter what.” —Steven Pressfield
“For though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again, but the wicked stumble when calamity strikes.” —Proverbs 24:16
You’ve stumbled. You’ve fallen. But you won’t let this keep you down. Not again. Not this time.
You’ve been created on this planet with a purpose. Some people find their purpose & live it out, while others contribute to purpose without knowing.
To find and live your true purpose requires a righteous pursuit. On this path you will fall much more than 7 times, but you will continue to rise and be stronger with each comeback.
You can go through your entire life with your eyes “closed”, or you can open your heart, mind, and soul and find the treasure that it waiting for you.
“Where there is no vision, the people perish.” —Proverbs 29:18
Not only did the dreams of these greats serve as inspiration, they were necessary building blocks toward the quality of lives we live today as they continue to serve & inspire us to dream & take action toward our dreams.
“Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.” -Albert Einstein
Einstein knew it.
Buddha knew it.
Jesus knew it.
& not only did they know it, they realized & embodied it – Imagination.
They of course had their own unique methods for sharing one of the most misunderstood truths within humanity, but they shared it.
It baffles me sometimes that we never learn about this in school – The Power of Imagination. We are almost always taught the opposite – Conform. Don’t question your teachers & adults because they are right! yea, that’s a big joke.
Ego has dominated the 20th century but it is loosening up in the 21st century. What we need now is Soul. Real Soul. & it’s happening.
Imagination comes from the Soul – True Imagination, & all the great spiritual teachers & great scientists understood this. That Imagination is not just some surreal & futile function of the human mind, but that it is playing a huge role in the manifestation of humanity & the lives of all beings.
“The human mind is our fundamental resource.” — John F. Kennedy
“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” — Romans 12:2
You have been gifted with the power of imagination. You can let it go to waste or you can learn more about it & play a role in the evolution of humanity.
