![]() 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 ** |
I had a very enjoyable meeting today with my Life History Group. We get together at a local library Branch on the first Thursday of each month and share a story from our past (close or distant). There were only seven of us today, a paltry group for our normal number of ten to fifteen, but all the stories were very interesting as usual. They covered a broad range of topics from golf to pets to trips to clotheslines. We even had a first timer who looked like a student. She's embarking on the historical journey of her grandmother's life, intending to put words to paper for her. I hope she comes back. |
