A Brief Short Story: The Old Books

The old books as well as the old prophecies killed our individual and collective intuition and creativity with unchangeable plans and directives to use for our lives.
Think if everyone is a prophet, how the world is going to be?
Think if everyone is connected to oneself, to others, and to the world, how the future will be?
Try not to see the negative projections, cause there are past experienced assumptions.
Think if a child has all the resources, where she or he will be?
