What this is
A modern parable about creative freedom. Not a technical rant. Not a manifesto. A story that asks: what happens when creation is traded for convenience?
It explores what we lose when we stop making and fixing—and how easily freedom slips away when people stop learning how things work.

"..the spark of creation. The seed of ingenuity. The hope that things can change and improve." — from the parable
The questions it asks
If someone else controls your tools… are they really your tools?
If your machine must ask permission… are you really free to create?
These aren't abstract questions. They're happening right now, in the tools you use every day.
