A sheet of paper is a flimsy, almost insubstantial thing. It is flat, plain, and altogether unremarkable. Yet it the right hands it can be transformed into something very remarkable indeed.

Poets can transform a plain sheet of paper into a garden of images and emotions by covering it with their flowery script. Storytellers can make a sheet of paper into a dark adventure or a gripping tale of suspense so engrossing that the reader can’t wait to turn the page and see the next sheet of transformed paper even though to all appearances it is almost exactly the same as the one before it.

Artists can capture your personality with a single sheet of paper. A few strokes with the artist’s pencil reveals the subject’s essential character and preserves a moment in time for decades. The twinkle of a lover’s eye, an enigmatic smile, an air of lofty indifference can be caught and may endure on that plain sheet of paper long after the emotion has faded from the subject’s heart.

Children can create magic with paper, conjuring mythical beasts, legendary battles, and omnipotent heroes with a striking resemblance to Mom and Dad. They create worlds of imagination with the just 64 colors of a crayon box.

All of these decorative transformations leave the paper essentially as it was in terms of shape, but a different class of creators bends and cuts and reveals constructions and objects that were all along hidden within the paper. A few deft folds in less than a minute create a magnificent flying machine that slices through the air or traces graceful arcs before gliding back to earth ready for another flight of fancy.

A pair of scissors turns a sheet of snow white paper into snowflake as unique as the real thing. With a tiny bit of tape, paper snowflakes are suspended in the act of falling against the window pane for the entire season, until they are replaced by the crayon colored flowers and butterfly cut-outs that herald the spring.

The scientifically minded can transform a thin strip of paper into the paradoxical mobius strip with a twist and a bit of tape. With a pencil, they scribe complex equations and work to solve the eternal mysteries of the universe.

Engineers conceive and perfect devices and machines with their drawings and sketches that a hundred years ago would have been regarded as constructs of magic rather than applied science. Architects create castles, skyscrapers, and comfortable homes with blueprinted Paper designs.

Tiny cash register paper rolls capture and record every one of billions of commercial transactions that take place throughout the world each day.

Small companies and corporate empires alike are created with paper business plans that attract funding for their endeavors. The wealth of individuals and nations is represented by paper money that is transferred from hand to hand in exchange for the things we need to survive and live our lives according to the freedoms granted us on the simple sheets of aged parchment upon which our founding fathers built a nation.
