Perspective entails the perspection, and even the measuring, of the distance between the observer and the observed. The historical concept of the "Renaissance" was a death and a rebirth. This ties into the law of rhythm, how depression can only be cured by an outburst of expression. How life is a paradox, if you sleep in your bed you have to make it in the morning and repeat. The sooner you accept the pendulums movement, the more at peace you will feel. You can only appreciate the one when you experience the other.

The Renaissance began in moments created by ordinary people with jobs. Their use of language shaped the most transformative period after a dark age. Language shapes our consciousness, our thinking, living and seeing the world. AI is a blackhole which feeds off of us and is a means to an end. We are facing a great evil of our time and our smartphones are a perfectly curated spell of hypnosis.

Sustained attention is where a renaissance moment is allowed to blossom. It is in that moment that you can weave all the diverse meanings of your own perspective into a distinct outburst of the human spirit. It begins in the minds and habits of ordinary people. If you hit rock bottom, instead of doom scrolling and being trapped within your algorithm, have you ever tried collecting those rocks?

Magic exists within your sustained attention. What was called magic in the old days is called science today! The study of stars went fom Astrology to Astronomy. Alchemy went to Chemistry. As humans we gained more knowledge about our universe and perfected our magic, augmenting it's name into science. Legitimate scientists study subjects like telekinesis, telepathy and quantum physics - very fancy names for magic. The very fact that you are able to read this has been enabled through raw materials going through complex industrial process to create the internet and all the components necessary to access it. If you were to explain to an ancient mind that the collective conciousness is connected this way, they would believe it to be magic and we know it as techonolgy and science.

Tribal connection and belonging has been replaced by the collective consciousness of the internet. Consciousness, intelligence and humaness are all being challenged. What separates our intelligence to the intelligence of AI? It depends again on your own way of defining what intelligence is because you cannot place it within a binary box. AI is challenging a general intelligence, all the questions children would ask their mom are now being entered into chatgpt.

If Language is a reflection of a collective conscioussness, there has to be a distinct shift away from the rot. Poetry is not just a bunch of pretty words by a poet who has been dead for a long time, when you read the words should become alive. Poetry becomes an enactment of mobile consciousness, "a beetle whizzes"; does this not force your imagination to sustain it's attention to grasp the words which create a visual and auditory experience? When you read and get lost within it, to the eye you are reading but you are elsewhere with where the pages take you. The saying of being "lost within the book" is quite fitting. To get lost within social media and doom scroll destroys your peace.

As someone who is deeply surrounded by the humanities, especially art and poetry, I find AI very wrong to humanise. Many people around me speak about it as though it's someone we know, it's incredibly dystopian. Especially when I am on short-form social media, you can't miss AI-Generated posts because the style of language is distinct. Why should I bother to read or watch something no human bothered to make? The saying the company you surround yourself with says a lot about you and I truly believe what you algoritm is, is a reflection of your inner world and character. Alongwith how your perspective of the world is a reflection of your inner world.

You are the easiest thing to change in the world. When you empower yourself, you empower your world. Life is experienced within 5 meters around you. If you worry about the terrible things on the news or let a nasty comment consume you. Empathy without boundaries is the destruction of yourself. Terrible things have always happened throughout millenia, we just hear about it faster and it is designed to manipulate you. If someone makes a nasty comment towards you, always understand that the world is a mirror and if they see evil within you it is only a reflection of their character. Never return their evil with evil because the corruption in their heart does not belong in yours.

Let them carry their darkness, always protect your light.

If you take on this quest of improving yourself and create strong boundaries with what you allow into your world. Cultivate magic and focus your energy within your own world, your Renaissance moment will start this way. Look inward at what you loved as a child to start somewhere. Place a photo of yourself as a child on your mirror to remind yourself to always look inward and be kind to yourself.

I have found a lot of peace in reading books about poets and philosphoers, reading everything that they went through and how they did things with the scenarios they were in. Especially when they go through a struggle that is similar to a situation I have faced. For instance, the American Renaissance began due to an anxiety that they did not have their own distinct voice.
