Editor’ s note
“ To see things in the seed, that is genius,” said the Father of Taoism, Lao Tzu. To me, this seed is— but, of course— an idea, a dream, or even a new beginning … It is also where everything germinates with passion and then propels you to the next step: A plan of action.
But to dream is to also to believe because the importance of dreams is that they are in themselves the concept of a seed. Inspiration allows you to create and attain goals while offering an insight into championing your ideas with a personal touch.
In our first issue of Second U Magazine, we feature creators who dared to dream and believe that everything is possible in Second Life. By taking fresh ideas and putting them to work, they have achieved amazing results and what was, perhaps, once beyond their imagination. Each and every one of them have shared with us their determination and in watching their budding seeds grow.“ In the begining [ kunst ] started out as modern office furniture store inspired by the Bauhaus style.” Kunst Himmel reminisced.“ However, at the time, Second Life was an attractive place for real life companies to hold meetings with employees around the world, and I saw the opportunity to meet their needs with my products.” The possibility of impossibility had no existence in their imagination.
The same is true for Second U Magazine. I had an idea and roped in the creative minds I’ ve found whom also believed in my“ original seed”. We are very proud of our first edition and can only anticipate bigger and better things to come. This is only our first step and yours, too. Only because Second U Magazine is really about YOU, our readers, and we invite you to join us on this incredible ride.
But for now, we challenge you to dream and— always— dream big because dreams do come true!
