I'm just starting to see how illusory our notions of right and wrong, good and bad, necessary or not, are. We have so very many more options than we have been trained, from the earliest ages, to see.

The hardest prison to escape from , is the one that you've constructed for yourself...
Have we erected the prison if we've been made incapable of envisioning anything else? We can unmake the illusion though. Detach from the show, pay it no attention at all, and remake everything. Imagination is key. Dreaming is key.

You accept being a 'victim' (of circumstance), just by adopting that perspective.
Hard experiences in real life can knock that one out of you! (and crush many, also, along the way - nature and evolution cares nothing for illusions).
Imagination isn't the key (in my opinion).
Imagination comes after leaving the mind prison, not the key to set you free.
I can give you half a dozen examples of people on hive that are trapped in 'the mind prison' and don't even realize it - and yet they 'use their imaginations' to write posts.
It doesn't free them - it perpetuates the illusions.
The key, is - in my opinion - being able to distinguish reality from illusion.
'Pragmatic eyes', rather than 'dreamer eyes'....
And then dream away - it's fun!
