Imagine That

Imagine. First, imagine how it is to be able to imagine. Imagine a world that has beautiful people living in love because it's dutiful. Imagine children playing, laughing and having fun. Imagine a world that can never be undone. All these things that you have imagined so far, it's like seeing a world from a distant star. Imagine a place where poverty and starvation have come to an end. Imagine a world where we are not enemies but all friends. Imagine tomorrow becoming today, imagine making a way out of no way. Imagine learning how to fly, imagine a world where people never die. Imagine rocks that turn into gold. Imagine a life where you never get old. You can see all these things in your head. You can see it all living and not dead. You can feel the breeze of love on your face, and, in just a few minutes, you have imagined this place. Now, ask yourself how can that be. What you('re) seeing in your head but your eyes (can)not yet see(--) that is the gift of being a human being: the power to imagine and the power to dream. Even better much better yet, what you see is what can be built and lived in it. You can't tell me we can't have what we see. You can't tell me what can and cannot be. You can't tell me that the impossible cannot be done, unless you are talking about the creation of the sun. You can't tell me that peace and love cannot be real when they are the main feelings the heart can feel. Imagine a world without confusion, corruption or crime. Now, open your eyes. What do you see? Opposite of what your mind now sees. It's all just one thought away and can start to become our reality today.
