Understanding the “Human Experience” is something we can spend our whole life doing. We can get caught in traps of what we “should do”, what “others do” or what we’ve “always done”. This can keep us doing things that no longer serve.
Enter the mind of a six year old–trying to understand life from the framework of: “why do we do that” (before he is programmed into any of the above ways of thinking)? Why do we do what we do? Isn’t there a different way?
And then he says: “We have wars to decide who wins, and who gets what they want. I’ve been thinking–why don’t we just play Dodgeball? The winner gets what they want, and the loser doesn’t. That seems pretty fair to me, and that way, no one would have to die–so there would be less sadness.”
When you believe there are no such things as “bad ideas”, any thought could lead you to the next innovation or coup of human thinking. Welcome in your creative thoughts. Who knows where it might lead you, or others.
And… Why don’t we play Dodgeball?
