The Power Within
The things that we need could be nearer than we think. When we look for external things to bring us satisfaction, it may be found that true satisfaction never comes. Why is this that satisfaction does not seem to come from external things? Could that be because we already have every thing that we need within us?
The eyes of a child
When we look at the life of a growing child, you will notice that the child would get more joy from the wrapping paper than the present. It would seem that the processed gift does not give the joy that was expected. Notice children who are play and are using their imagination, using the toy made out of a few branches of a tree. The imagination does not require the pre-packaged items found in most super toy store.
Great inventors
To take this a step further if we consider the great inventor, you could notice that the great invention started in the mind of the great person. So if you even consider that great inventors like Thomas Edison was able to create countless inventions including the light bulb and the moving picture, you we see that they had great imagination. The powerful fact is we all have the power to create great things, the key is to realise and then take action to achieve our creation. Also we could say that one of the great things that we have is the power of thought. The power to think I feel has been the greatest gift that mankind has been blessed with. When we have an idea and then take action we have the power to bring forth a great gift to mankind. So use your imagination and let it run wild and see all the possibilities that you can bring forth.
The sea of possibilities
So how can we open the trap to this great lake of possibility? Well the first thing I would say is to recognise that you and every one on this planet is unique. We all can do things that no one else on this planet can do. The people who seem to excel could have found out the things that they excel at.
So have faith in your abilities and look for the things that you enjoy and excel at. Always remember you have the power to find the gift that is laying dormant inside of you. So release that gift, and use the power of imagination to make you be the person that you can become.
