One of the greatest tragedies in life is the lack of will to follow through your thoughts.
Every physical manifestation must be preceded by a mental creation. That is to say, everything that exists physically, as created by man, must have been initially conceived in the mind. Our clothes, houses, phones, cutlery computers, roads, bicycles, planes and guns. Virtually everything that is man-made. The mind of man is a very powerful thing. The creative power resident in the mind of man is unlike that in any other animal or natural being for that matter. It is the law of the universe that all things created in the physical must first be created in the mind.
Imagination precedes logic.
Imagination is the factory responsible for coming up with new concepts. It conceives an impossible thought and breathes life into that through inspiration. If you talk to an artist, an entrepreneur or a trendsetter they will inform you that imagination is key. Imagination is the driving force of creation. The spark behind innovation.Once in a while our minds conceive what may seem to be the impossible, from television sets that emit smells to loads of money to dating that girl who seems to be way out of your league. Imagination is important especially if the latter is to be made manifest.
Logic informs to a great extent, the path to be taken from imagination to the physical manifestation of that thought. Logic is the superhighway that connects these two points and in occasions where logic may fail, the creative process usually takes over. The creative process can happen to be on an occasion or two, defiant to the already pre-existing logical processes in play. The creative process is not the preserve of a few men, but an option available to all men. However, not all men have the courage to take the path when the opportunity arises, and those who choose to follow this path when it comes calling, are often labelled as madmen. Some may even term the creative process a miracle. This is especially where those pursuing this new path pursue it aggressively and seem to be so sure of what they are doing yet there are no predecessors to validate his actions. In a lot of instances, this does not end up well, but tin those instances it does, a new process is created. The risks are greater but the rewards are higher. It is the price the unknown demands form all men who dare to pursue this path.
Science.
Science is man's way of understanding the superhighway talked about before. Science is a great tool that tries to explain the origin of things. No actually, tries to reasonably deduce the origin of all things created. Science is brilliant. It is systematic and reasonable. Science obeys rules and tests truths. It tries to logically arrange information and facts in a manner that could be best understood by human beings. However, it has one main Achilles heel. Science does not have the power to conceive. Science unfortunately or fortunately, is a servant of imagination. It is a servant of that which creates, a tool in the hands of a creative master. Logic in the same way is a servant of imagination. It is a servant of vision and could never become the master to the vision. Like in the same way, it is not enough to be on a highway. There is no glory on being on Mombasa road if you are not heading to a destination that the road is responsible for linking you to. No one ever says they went for a trip to Thika superhighway. When someone calls me and I say I am on Thika road, the next question that will obviously follow is, where is Lelli heading to?
Creation v. Evolution
Evolution is a factor of creation. Evolution has no power to be original. It has no power to conceive something totally out of the blues. When mosquitoes evolve to resist certain strains of medicine, they do not become completely new creatures. They instead become mutated mosquitoes. Not moths or fireflies. It is only a creative power that can come up with a radically different species. Science, or in this case, the big bang, could not create. If it even exists, then the big bang must be the brainchild of a superior being. One that imagined and crafted the unthinkable and made it happen.
At this point, it does not appear to me, that a tool (science) is capable of purposefully reasoning out such an intricate plan and execute it to the brilliance we now term as nature. It is illogical that a highway should be the centre of attention in the universe. and I say all this in respect to the universal law that every physical manifestation is preceded by a mental creation. Science obeys laws and rarely contradicts itself. I would highly recommend not studying science if that is the best excuse that a person could come up with the origin of creation.
However, if science and not imagination is responsible for creation, it would just prove that science is a god with a mind and a superior being. Either way, we are all here because someone or something with a mind came up with a mental image of creation. .
