Ridiculous
To create is to go where no one has gone before. Often something considered ridiculous at one time (electricity, space travel) became remarkable and finally common place. Don't be afraid to push beyond the norm. Being standard doesn't excite anyone. Be ridiculous.

Love the picture and the quote. If more people thought outside the box and tried something they thought they couldn't do just think of all the accomplishments we would see and the increase in pride people would find.
ReplyDeleteMost people stay well inside of the box ONLY BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY THINK OTHERS MIGHT THINK. F That.

Thanks for stopping by my new blog, Dan. I've been to your site a few times, too, via Our So Called Life. You have great things to say!
ReplyDeleteThis made me think of when people realized the earth was round and not flat. That concept must have seemed very ridiculous!
So many of our assumptions are simply not true. It takes exploration to find reality.

Ridiculous--you mean doing something like sailing around the world in a 29-foot boat? Someday, someday... ;-)
ReplyDelete:0 - You can't do that! ;-)
DeleteSometimes that line between ridiculous and remarkable is blurry! I have done many things that others would label ridiculous...and maybe they were! Great photo.
ReplyDeleteIt's called LIVING!
