Social Imagination

Personally, I do agree that we as people we have the ability to create visions of what should
be and what might be a deficiency in our society, on the streets where we live, and in our schools.
This is because, if people didn't see these things, there would not be a way for people, places, and
things to improve. Being that improvement is key in modern day, everyday people must identify
what could be better, and what things aren't very efficient.
Many people are filled with creativity, and everyone as a distinct opinion. With all of these opinions and thoughts that people have, ideas begin to form. As people we always notice when things are uncomfortable, not only for ourselves but others. For example, Martin Luther King Jr. noticed all
of the social injustices he began to work towards fixing them. Without noticing deficiencies in our
society there is no way that they can be fixed. Every person within the government has to use
What they know with the things they notice in order to create effective change.
Along with our society, people must notice how things could be better within our neighborhood.
For instance, the proof that people have the ability to visualize these things, is that people always
Have a great idea of how to make the place they stay better. People mow their lawns, sprinkle
their flowers, and pick up their dog feces, because they have a bigger vision of how their neighborhood could be if everyone pitched in and took care of their homes. However, to get to this point they have to notice the faults of their neighborhood.
In schools students, teachers, and administrators are striving to make things better every year, and every day. A student makes things better by changing work ethics, staying focused, and becoming motivated. Teachers try to improve by working harder, connection with students, and trying to make things memorable. Administrators improve yearly by changing and enforcing important rules and becoming more organized. These things all come from noticing deficiencies, and unwanted results. These new results are all the end result of people creating visions of how things should and could possibly be.
All of these things being noticed can create a poem. A poem if full of noticing that people see and feel are very important, and feel that they should be heard no matter what. As someone notices something a poem can come easily, because all the visions of the good, and all the past thoughts of the bad create a very good harmony that turns out to be a very meaningful poem.
