 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 ** Image ID #1701066 Unavailable **  |
| Not a lot going on here but since it says ten days thought I would check in at least. I stick my nose out the door as little as possible because we are having a heat wave and a drought here in the swamp! Temps in the mid 90s everyday and teeny little episodes of rain if any. My poor ac is practically shouting at me! I did write a little story for my critique group tomorrow and since there was nothing to lose, I submitted it to my local writing group's literary journal (https://writersallianceofgainesville.submittable.com/submit). It's titled "What's In A Purse" and is about the contents and revelations from those contents. I'm not optimistic about being accepted but you know that old saying...."why not?" I had a super quiet Memorial Day weekend. My daughter wanted to come down but I talked her out of it. The traffic and the heat was ferocious. And I heard on my local news Monday evening that there was a fire with lots of smoke near a small town that she would have needed to drive through. So both of us had a quiet holiday. Hope yours was as enjoyable. |
