Creativity Dying

This is the sign of creativity dying.  There is no need to explain it,  the world does this for me.  The over population of mankind has yielded a flaw much more subtle than environmental destruction.  No,  we are much more intricate than that,  if anything we will self destruct from a self fulfilling prophecy like a black hole.

 Our own magnitude crushes us,  hinders us into utter obliteration just to be anomaly of "modern physics."

It is our own self appreciation of the human spirit that leaves the best of us unnoticed.  It is of the popular opinion that the number one market is love,  love is who we are.  Human beings are unique in that they love things.  Really?  Everything loves;  any naturalist can look at a scene of nature and realise that everything around us loves to be alive,  otherwise it wouldn't be here. . . 

The creativity o humanity is dwindling,  everything has already been done.  I'm definitely not even the first person to say this.  Thank you Lennon.   There is only so much you can do with a limited universe, as we can tell.   Hopefully,  as we are coming to discover,  there is more than one universe.  Like when we thought that we were the center of the galaxy,  maybe one day the paradigm shift will oscillate towards the notion that we, in fact, are not the center of all existence. 

The creativity of man can only get so far as we have seen,  simply because our eyes have only seen so much as to what there is to be.  This is the sign of creativity dying,  when everybody has credibility to copy all the old masters.  There is only one Dali,  there is only one Hendrix.  I have seen,  like any other talented individual that people have no recognition,  or at least no withstanding memory of the greatest feats of humanity.  I have experimented and found out that if you tell any random party-goer that you are Salvador Dali they won't even realise who that is.  They cling only on the word that you are "famous"  That you are an "artist",  the master of the trade.  Respect goes about as far as half of your influence on a crowd of people;  once they realize that everyone else is cheering,  they raise their hands in the air for a cause they don't even know about. 

 Creativity is dying because anybody can make their claim to fame;  when you look at a page for a local band on myspace,  who is commenting on their page?  Nothing but other bands!  Once in a while you come across one random friend trying to support them.  Now on a page made by some random fan (not even the Band.) you see hundreds of people making their pledges,  even when they most likely are putting up their comment to leech a small portion of the fame from all the other fans praising the musical conglomerate.   Otherwise a true fan would try to contact the band themselves. . . . maybe actually buy their album instead of downloading it for free.  Creativity is dying because no one person can keep track of all the ridiculous amount of talent flowing from this overabundance of tools,  media, and knowledge.  Society is at a crisis,  like it always is.  But people can become way too distracted before the room we are in is becoming exceedingly uncomfortable from the amount of people flooding in.  Just do me a favor,  think critically of our actions at least once in a lifetime.  please.
