The world without imagination...

"Violence is for those that has lost its imagination.
Has your country lost its imagination?"

This is from the manager of the hospital in Iraq,
where they had to care for hundreds and thousands of children, injuried men and women everyday, with pieces of missiles and metal fragments shot into the body...

It is because of the lack of imagination that the world has gone bad...
we always get into arguments and fights with others,
cause in the post modern, our feelings and stand point is very important, and it is our rights...
and so when ppl don't agree on things, the easiest way is just to see who is the stronger one and beat the heck out of the other till u have to surrender...
When parents dealing with their kids, when couples argues, when kids get into fights in school, cause they didn't see other ways to deal with it, so just start to shout and yell and shoot...


We only see others as an material object, an other, an "it", a number, a stat,
and don't look into ppl...
that they are actually a person with feelings, with their loved ones crying and worrying for them when things happens...

This is why a culture, arts, literature are so important...
to understand humanity,
with flesh and blood, thoughts and feelings...

When are we going to learn...
