Good morning friends. I was trying to think of doing something original because that was the thought that was on my mind - originality. When something is original it is fresh and it is newly inspired. So, I guess that is the attraction of something being original. You know, it is just something that writers and painters and any kind of artist does for that matter. That is what artists are famous for - doing original things. And, that is what we expect them to do as well. Remember back in school when you had an assignment and it had to be original? Well, that is what the teacher was looking for, something original, something that would be an expression of your imagination and of your ability to produce something that no one else in the world has thought of. It is capitalizing on the nature of ideas because this is where originality comes from. And, I think that is a very good thing indeed, to be original that is. In a way it is an expression of your humanity and of your special situation in life. You are the only person in the world who is like you - there is no other. So, each person in the world is really an original piece of work. Perhaps then, we could all start right there by examining ourselves when we are asked to produce something original. We might be cheating a bit, but at least we would be adhering to the idea of originality because we are thinking of something original - ourselves. We would have a starting point from which to produce our original piece of work or even our original thought or idea. The logo above is related to humanism and humanism is related to atheism. I think that this humanist logo is quite original don't you? Well, it certainly caught my attention and in my mind this is something original - at least it was when it was created anyway.

And, now on to the song of the day. And, in keeping with the theme of originality I thought this song might fit the bill. I think you would agree that all of the songs in any year or category have something original about them and that is why they are a success. But, to be really original means you have to reach out a bit and perhaps try something just a little more daring or do something or employ some theme that no one else is using. I think this song fits the bill more or less and hence I would describe it as being original in its form. Who ever thought of marrying an ugly wife and what would the benefits be?
