I was just reminded of how much I just hate systems, I cant stand them, I actually feel trapped. Especially the school one, where I have to think like the guy who wrote the text book, a place where I'm basically not allowed to think or create new ways or approaches to things, Its a rule that someone made and it was chosen to be the standard and we keep quite and take it in silence.
I dont believe that I'm born with knowledge but I believe that I'm born with an ability to create, which gets quenched as people grow up. A child in preschool for example if he paints the dog yellow, he is firstly mocked by his peers for being "strange" then encouraged to use browns and blacks by the teacher, because thats how everyone sees the dog to be. From a very young age this child is not encouraged to share his view on the yellow dog, or why he sees it that way, he doesn't have a chance lest he gets out of the box.
I think that we are terrified of difference more than change
I think that we cringe, look down upon, reject and shun difference because we are terrified
We feel safe when things or people are different variations of what we know and have seen before...
DARE TO BE DIFFERENT...DARE TO CREATE...That we will all tap into that element that makes us the people that we are, that thing that make me, me.
God created difference and He likes it, what did we miss???
