Abstract thinking

The mind is so incredible. There are so many amazing qualities the human mind is composed of. One of the most amazing things I find about the mind is the imagination. It is so free, limited to only what ones own mental blocks construct for it. It is light and airy, and you can do anything you want with it. Create a fantasy and live it out, make up a poem, create a fiction scenario and write out a story, make a melody play in your head, or think of a piece of art you would like to create.

The imagination comes from where your dreams come from, in your subconscious, abstract thinking mind. Abstraction comes from inside your mind, it can make sense to you completely no matter how crazy it is. Think of a time, you woke up from an intensely vivid dream. You felt that was your reality for that period of time, a reality that made sense. Even though you may have just had a dream your cat just tried on your skinny jeans without asking you, and you weren't upset at the fact he didn't ask you, but were upset at the fact that he looked better in them than you did. That was a dream someone just posted. In this dream it made sense, the feelings were real, but getting it out into the real world takes that realism away from it. To really get out an internal feelin or idea is actually very challenging. This is a true art. It is the art of taking abstraction and portraying it as accurately as possible into the real tangible world for others to see. It is merging the logical with mysticism. That in itself is a talent. Art, writing, music, movies, pictures, anything that is put into the world creatively is literally just a language. It is a language of translating imagination into an understandable form. Those are the best tools we have to give the world a language in order to understand what is going on inside our colorful imaginative minds. 

The more you sharpen your critical and abstract skills of the mind, the better you will be as putting the best representation of your insides out into the world for others to see and appreciate. The better you become at getting your soul out there, the more beneficial that is to humanity as a whole. 

People work together to evolve on all levels. When one comes up with a technology to fulfill a task that frees us up to evolve more on top of that. If we always do our best to get our thoughts, the representation of our very souls, out into the universe, then we will always be adding useful information for people to mix with their own creativity and evolve themselves. 

Ok now I am rambling, I can't even remember where I was going with that one... To be continued....
Perfect example of witnessing in real time how my mind was working from the inside, you just saw my mind work so fast I couldn't keep up with it and lost it, and no way am I going back to read my own writing right now.
