Thinking Outside the Box

I have just realized that thinking outside the box is a lofty goal. Why? Because the box is fucking huge. there are no original ideas. Humans have been around for a bigillion years, give or take, and we have been creating since our birth. I recently did a shoot with my favorite model Zoey. I never thought it was cutting edge, but I figured it was fairly original. Well someone came along and said it reminded them of a scene from Legend. Well, whatever. I still intend to keep reaching for the lid so I can get outside of the box. My plan is to take those boxes that are inside of the box, and stack them up and climb. This makeshift staircase of ideas will eventually evolve into something that has no resemblance to the bottom box, and worst case, I'll be able to knock on the lid and ask to come out.
