 |  Day to day stuff....a memoir without order. |
 Imagination is described by Webster as...The act or power of forming a mental image of something not present to the senses in reality. Albert Einstein said "Logic will get you from A to B, but imagination will take you everywhere."  I never realized it until I read it somewhere but there are ways to boost one's imagination: Create a visual journal Draw whatever you see for 15 minutes a day. You don't need to be an artist. Think like an artist Cut out pictures from magazines & piece them together to create an original image. Listen to Bach Close your eyes while playing your favorite music. Or listen to the sounds of nature on a CD or in the great outdoors. Play word games Try thinking of as many words as you can that begin with MAR...or you pick. Daydream Let your mind wander, or focus on a single object & study its characteristics.     Everyone has a story....here's mine.....c   |
| Somehow today turned out to be a necessary grocery-shopping day. I usually try to avoid doing that on weekends because the stores are so crowded. Today was no different, but I had no choice since I was out of several needed items. One thing I had written on my list to try on my next shopping venture was camomile tea. I like to drink a cup of tea in the evening while reading, and I've been wondering if that is the cause of my sometimes insomnia. I selected Twinings Camomile with Honey and Vanilla and I am sipping it now. It smells delicious and has a very mild taste. It may be a little early to tell about the sleeping problem but I couldn't wait to try it. I usually drink green tea so I don't know it it had enough caffeine to affect sleep. I'll have to do a better test tomorrow evening. Doctor's appointment tomorrow morning, yearly checkup, ugh. My cholesterol was up some last time so I'm sure to need labwork. Being a vegetarian, I can't imagine how that could be. The only thing I have deduced to change is to eat more fatty fish, which I didn't really want to do but did anyway. We'll see. until next time...c |
