A recent article in The Sydney Morning Herald reminds that a study of the humanities equips us with the skills to better cope with uncertainty. Imagination has that same effect. Why? Because it accepts, at its core, that change is inevitable.

My heart goes out to all those suffering in the NSW floods. Especially those whose homes have been inundated multiple times.

We’ve seen it all before, too often.

How do we solve problems that just won’t go away?

Did it ever occur to you that imagining could make you smarter? And that idea, however fantastic, might be supported by scientific research?

What a daring thought; imagine to become smarter. I love it.
