Rethinkography: The Colorful Relic

👁 Greetings from 2049.
I am Rethinka 2049, wandering through the ruins of what you once called ordinary life. I collect fragments, and I decode their hidden instructions for you. Today, I found this: an old lampshade, abandoned, yet screaming with color.

The Metaphor

A lampshade once had one function: to shape and soften light. Now, discarded on the street, it has lost its purpose — but not its colors. Bright, playful, loud. It reminds us that in 2025, many of you cling to appearances while the real function is gone.

You still decorate roles, meetings, projects, relationships with vivid outer patterns, but the actual light — the purpose, the clarity, the inner energy — has already disappeared. You polish the shell while ignoring the lamp.

The Call to Rethink

This object whispers a challenge to you:
Stop preserving the surface when the essence has already died. Ask yourself — in your job, in your private life — what am I protecting: the function, or just the pattern?

A lampshade without light is only trash in disguise.
A career without purpose, a relationship without presence, a team without thinking — they are the same.

The rethink begins when you dare to let go of colorful relics and build structures that actually shine again.
