Okay world,
so this is blog post number 2.
After reading and re-reading blog post number 1 I realized that my brain was probably not at full capacity when I thought of this blog and decided to make it. I do not regret anything I wrote, nor do I question the truth of anything I said but I think that I will be continually trying to make adjustments to those first thoughts about this and will continually try to express what I mean by this crazy idea.
Here it is(right meow(now)):
I am just a human. I believe that the only absolute truth that any human can know is that they are alive, in some capacity. They may not currently, nor ever know what being alive really means, but at least scientifically one can always acknowledge oneself as living so long as they are alive. To me, this means, that everything else that has ever happened, happened because things were alive together. I think that as Humans, the main thing that makes us different than animals is our brains. They are very complex and can do a whole lot of stuff, it just depends on what we make our brains do. I believe that no two people can ever know exactly what the other is experiencing, I think all that we can do is relate. When people relate to each other I believe that their brains work together to create something real that exists between them. Some people call this a relationship. So, Humans are alive, and have brains, and can relate to each other. I now want to take this one step further and suggest that as a human with a brain I can relate to all other humans and we together can create whatever we want through relating to each other. I call this notion Brain Power, because this is the power that the brain has just by existing. I think that most everything is a product of Brain Power and I certainly believe that human's define and understand everything on the basis of Brain Power.
Unfortunately, the world isn't just this easy. Most people don't choose to look at things as potential for what they could be, rather, they look at things as how they are and just choose to deal with it. They use their Brain Power just to help themselves get by. I can't fault them for this choice, the world is scary and using Brain Power to do anything else but keep living is a risk. Well I am choosing to take that risk, I've made a choice to choose a direction and start walking in it. That direction is to use Brain Power to make the world a better place by being the best human I know how to be.
I think that through sheer human ingenuity, determination, collaboration, and hard work, humans can do absolutely anything they want. Some may ask "What do you mean that the world can be better just by being the "best" human you know how to be?" Well by this I mean that all humans are only able to actually do whatever it is they so choose because no one but the individual makes decisions for the individual. I know that I can do (act, speak, walk, write) anything that I want. I think then that it's up to each individual to determine what they believe the best thing to do is and in turn try to act accordingly.
In my life, the best person that I can be is this: someone who loves everyone, and has the courage to try to tell everyone that he loves them and cares about them.
It seems pretty easy but I think that if I use enough Brain Power this can be pretty effective at making the world better for everybody.
I think that merely letting people know that someone out there loves and cares for them could really define a lot of things about humanity. I especially think that the more people I can spread this message of my love to on a personal level the better.
So this summer, to begin with, I am going to dress up as America's Brain Power: The Superhero, and see how America takes me. Since I live in America, and I see that Brain Power created everything that we have, then taking up a Superhero Persona to live that out in my life seems like the easiest way to tell people that I love them and care about them.
As American's Brain Power: The Superhero, I don't have to be Nathan Charles Dicken, I can just be a superhero version of what I think America's Brain Power can be. I found out last night that maybe America's Brain Power is already a super hero, and that maybe it's just inside each and every human, we just have to find out within ourselves how we can be that. I found that by just dressing up like what I picture America's Brain Power: The Superhero to be I could do just about anything that real Brain Power can do and people wanted me to succeed. It was easy, and it was interesting. I can't wait to see how real American Brain Power, reacts to my imagine Superhero of the same thing. I hope it will be positive and I hope that America will see just how far thinking about things goes.
There is a list of places I'd like to go and a lot of things I'd like to learn along the way, but really it's not up to me. It's up to America as to what kinda superhero its Brain Power should be or where it should go. So I'm just going to pick a direction and walk in it, literally. When I come across another human that I exist with, I am going to tell them that I am America's Brain Power and that I made everything, but that I want to know what they're thinking about right when I meet them so that I can help them make whatever all of America's Brain Power really wants to make.
I hope someday to not only limit myself to the confines of America but to be Global Brain Power: The Superhero. And even more than that, I hope that I won't have to keep dressing up and people will just start letting me into their lives because I'm a human, not because I wear a costume.
My name is Nathan Charles Dicken, and I am a human. I've decided that from here on out I am not going to rely on any other humans than myself, and am merely going to coexist with all humans until I am no longer living. This summer, I am going to try to be a superhero, and one that is America's Brain Power, I believe that by being that, as well as Nathan Charles Dicken, I can change the world. I hope you stick with me, as I'll need a lot of help (Brain Power) to get this actually in action.
Stay tuned for more details and exploits!

BRAIN POWER INCEPTION!
Hello world.
My name is Nathan Charles Dicken. A collection of my poetry can be found at definnate.blogspot.com
If you've kept reading past that shameless self promotion then perhaps we can keep being people through the internet together forever!
I mean really, think about it!: as long as you are reading this it's as good as if you're talking to an imaginary me that can only say just this, through the internet.
Anyways.
Tonight was Halloween. I live in Athens, OH and OU's Halloween party is the the number one halloween party in the world on Halloween. A lot of people, a whole ridiculous amount of people, like to dress up as whatever it is that they want on Halloween and everyone just lets them be. Only in Athens does this happen, and only does anyone get to be exactly what they dress up as for the rest of their lives if they are really lucky.
Well my friend! (and I do consider you a friend if you've made it this far.) I think that I really am just that lucky.
I decided, during a hike today, that I would dress up for halloween as a superhero, and wear an American flag cape, and I created a cardboard sign that I spray painted an American(ish) flag on and then I drew a brain next to a lightbulb that had the word power written in the coils that would make light if the lightbulb weren't just a drawing. There will be pictures provided in due time. Once I had imagined my cape and imagined the sign I wanted to wear, I imagined a sign on my back that said AMERICA'S BRAIN POWER
"What are you thinking about???!!" and I imagined a whole lot of people would write, exactly what they were thinking at anytime on my back and that would be America's Brain Power, because:
For halloween only, I got to be a superhero that was AMERICA'S BRAIN POWER. I met so many interesting people and loved each and everyone of them. Most of the people I met I knew before but a lot of them I didn't, it was very nice to make their acquaintances. But for this night being a super hero version of AMERICA'S BRAIN POWER enabled me to actually be a super hero, all that stopped me was my imagination and not once did it ever try to do that.
THATS RIGHT WORLD!
I THINK THAT I REALLY AM A SUPERHERO. WHATS MORE? I THINK THAT I AM A SUPER HERO BECAUSE I HAVE A BRAIN AND AM A HUMAN AND CAN POWER MY BRAIN THROUGH MY HUMANITY ANY WAY I SEE FIT.
It wasn't even hard. I just lived my life and anything I imagined became real. Other people experienced things that they never knew existed, all they did was talk to me. All they did was be alive.
SO WHATS THE BIG DEAL?!
IF:
All I did tonight was be a human dressed in a silly costume and believed I was a superhero,
AND:
Everyone just let this happen and was okay with it and everyone I met left: if not unchanged completely, ultimately better for themselves for having met me,
THEN:
WHY SHOULDN'T I ACTUALLY DRESS LIKE BRAIN POWER.
Why can't I dress up like a super version of what I am already and just be an amazing feat of whatever Brains everywhere allow me to be.
I can.
SO:
I made this blog, and I'm going to be a super hero. I think everyone is one already and if you'd like to join me let me know. I hope that no one hurts me or steals from me but humans are humans and I understand that. I'm a super hero as much as the world will let me be, I can choose to have this persona through the internet whether the world want's me or not, but I'm also not the only super hero that BRAIN POWER can be.
BRAIN POWER is anything that humans want.
I am a human that wants to be a super hero, and want's to be a super hero branded: BRAIN POWER.
If you let me be this then I promise that I will try my hardest to be the best human being I can to everyone. It's all anyone can do anyway.
I JUST WANT TO USE BRAINPOWER TO CREATE THE BEAUTIFUL LIFE THAT I LIVE FOR EVERYONE TO SEE. IF THAT MEANS BEING A SUPER HERO THEN AWESOME!
Talk to me world, and talk to each other, I'm going on a life long mission to just be brain power. MY NAME IS NATHAN CHARLES DICKEN AND I AM BRAINPOWER, YOu: are whoever you are, it's a pleasure meeting you. I've got just another 18 hours of halloween, but it's been great telling everyone to have a happy one.
I hope someday I can just tell the world everyday that they should have a celebration. At least Halloween is still around. Maybe next year we can all celebrate MONDAYS just like we did Halloween.
I LOVE YOU WORLD! and later today I'd like to go back to a rock and experience it all over again.
