I
know this is random, but I was just thinking the other day when I was on my
scooter, riding through the roads of Kupondole: every vehicle created, every
vehicle rushing along this road was a part of someone’s imagination. You know
how sometimes a certain thought takes you along the train of thoughts? It just mesmerizes
me how and what kind of things have been created throughout time.
Man
needed, so he created. Someday, someone must have thought: what if we could
reach some place faster rather than on foot? ; The consequence of which we see
today. Some other must have thought what if we could fly to some place? Some
other must have thought the concept of travelling on water; someone must have
felt the need to talk to their loved ones miles away and the telephone was
created; it must have clicked to somebody else that they wanted to view the
person that they were talking to. Cars, ships, airplanes, telephones, mobile
phones, computers, televisions, radios: it is just not one invention that has
made lives so much easier. And nor am I saying that this is all the
creativity of a single person. But to think, that they were in some time just a
part of somebody’s imagination, the answer to curiosity, and the solution to
what ifs? And all because there was need.
That
need drove the most powerful tool: the mind, to create what had seemed
skeptical before. Of course, this is no end to the creativity and the
innovations that are yet to come. Just think of what other things we are likely
to see in the near future? It both intrigues me and scares me to wonder what more
the human mind is capable of.
