I’ve been reading about the philosophy of Plasticity, which deals with one’s capacity for change. This thinking investigates the potential for profound personal formation and adaptability in various contexts, including personal identity and social inclusion.

Whereas the idea of ‘reinventing yourself’ through cosmetics or dress and maybe exploration of new venues of social participation might be thought of as involving a mental flexibility Plasticity is the ability to overturn an essential understanding of the natural world and to replace that understanding with thinking that transcends materiality and moves into a realm that may embrace the metaphysical.

What, then, may one reasonably imagine?
