@AjafikChristian Yes, I cannot blame parents making me think everything is possible, but i do think ageing is related to loosing illusion, i’m 44 now, thx f I dont have kids, I’m not sure what I would tell them, too depressing realistic vision. Plants and animals, you cannot go wrong. I dont think youtube is actually an evolution in general for humans, drama, addiction, listen to deluded people.

The idea is good but it is just that. It is plainly idealistic to think this would be good at a ted talk when the effects and impacts of a measurement about dreams is not talked about, so people will think that most of the time occupied was mostly empty talk and end up getting annoyed or angry, moreso, keywords like “imagine” gets overused too much, society and the world current revolved in being practical – talking about dreams and making people imagine by constantly telling them to do so and not giving any further information or elaborating on the impacts or effects of such a policy is too … unadulterated.
This idea does not fit the adult world, it belongs in the teenager phase of being stuck in theoretical pursuits – shielded by the impacts of the practical adult life
