animations/creativity

 remember when you were a kid watching cartoons, reading books about magic, dragons galore, impossibly superhuman abilities, watching superhero comics... than imagined your own play world of fantasy, clay came to life, stuff animals could talk, globs of silly puddy had character, carebears were real, and we could fly!!!

ever wonder where all these things came to fruition? creativity of the brain... imagination... yet where did that imagination come from? simple finger point from Bewitched and a spilled pot could be reversed, blink of an eye from I love Genie and you could disappear... o man how many times did I WISH I could have those abilities in elementary school, preschool, even middle school... books of elves/dwarves/dragons with skills and talents beyond physical feasibility... where did all these ideas come from? is there a limit at some point? why did they appear? deep desire to escape reality, playful joy and random thoughts...?

even though there is no real answer... can't help wondering sometimes... reading Brisingr in the Eragon series, saw a commercial of cartoon characters emerging out of chocolate so smooth, chocolate so gooey, couldn't help wondering, these ideas, so interesting, where did they come from? feels like there's no limit if one wanted to explore the human mind, the depths of its thoughts, joys, pains, imagination, values, then the subconscious, dreams, dreams that come true, instincts, instinctive feelings that come true, attractions, rejections, logic and reasoning... and then, others creations/music/movies become our form of entertainment, we adopt ideas from it and people in society share interests that consist of other's creativity, creations... so where is our own? given our beginnings and imaginations overlap with others too... *shrug* just thoughts...

mmhmm
