That was a remarkable article. Thank you. Maybe this loss of creativity is where the feeling of drudgery in life comes from. I am a "what if?" person. I like to let my mind wander. I did a lot more of that when I was young. It was called "daydreaming", considered not constructive. Now that I am older, I don't let people tell me how to think; I wander and wonder.
Incredibly astute article that was music to my ears. Thank you. Convergency-Wondering if that is why the Chinese culture is so good at math and engineering? The CCP doesn’t encourage “creativity.” They want human machines.
I really connected with this. Sad to now understand how at a very young age, I became so serious and literal and how exact detail replication is not creative. I'm going to go do something silly now. I think I'll paint a fairy.

Wandering and wondering — this is the way!

“When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful
A miracle, oh, it was beautiful, magical
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily
Oh, joyfully, oh, playfully watching me
But then they sent me away to teach me how to be sensible
Logical, oh, responsible, practical
And then they showed me a world where I could be so dependable
Oh, clinical, oh, intellectual, cynical”
