Is it true? Is the genius now a breed banned by extinction? They ask it, or tell it, but I don't listen when things are told so I consider telling things questions so I can contemplate what they mean. Einstein is the last great genius. Little do they know that there are many men and women of epic mental potential waiting in the winds to walk out and revolutionize our concepts of anything and everything.
I understand that Einstein's radical concepts and ideas have revised the meaning of life in the book of the individual, as well as in the movie of society, but I can not be coaxed into the belief that he was the last. The last of anything is a scary thought but fear doesn't give birth to an alternate reality. It is something more. If he was the last and the problems of now are worse, than what can we say of hope? Must hope be called a quitter?
Perhaps the next great genius will not revolutionize the science of the mind or develop laws in physics that simple people don't understand but instead just accept. The next great genius will do more than provide an answer and a description for the intellectual asking minds. What happens in the future will be redefinition and the repercussions from such a vast revolution are incomprehensible. But if we believe in good, than perhaps the ripple of reinvention will produce betterment. Good in the sense of positive, not in the categorical sense where good faces evil, but instead in the opposing breathe of negative, as in an electric charge or a moment in time and space. The antithesis of negative. This is it and then comes whatever the next genius will create.
Isn't that it? Can't we call genius creativity? Creativity may mean artistic which may also give thoughts of new age artists who place entire bulls with large metal golden rings over their heads into massive glass tanks of formaldehyde. This, although possibly perceived as genius by some, will not be received as a genius for the masses. Nor is this work done for their practical benefit. For those of you who do not understand the reference of golden rings, bulls, and formaldehyde I must tell you that this is considered art of a genius. Although real, it is of little importance. This serves as an example. As do I and all of you. We are examples, with designated numbers that describe nothing, and if we choose we can step outside of this and become more, or less depending on your desire for change. A genius can take either path, but surely many more geniuses will come. Surely giving up is just a plot to draw them out. If we call to the sky and say, "I don't believe you will ever rain again," we will surely be wet fools during the next thunderstorm.
So where are you? What are you doing at this moment? Geniuses of the future, great thinkers of now, put down the remote, pick up the book, sing the song of possibility and get to work. I may do what I say at times but more often than not I simply desire to be the catalyst. So let's begin and see what happens. We are each human beings filled with genius potential. Anything can happen with the path of life and the cultivation of the human mind. This is beauty and potential wrapped together. Put them in the oven at three hundred and fifty degrees for twenty minutes and out pops a genius. If that doesn't work, than I will wait for the world to bring them into the light for me, for us, for the progress of humanity. Let's make the call and see who answers. I'll be sitting in the mountain valley for now waiting with a smile for whatever happens next but knowing that never giving up is the only option.
