 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 **  |
| Hermine is coming although she has veered to the north a little. It's early morning and raining now, very gently, from a front ahead of her. I cut my back yard grass yesterday in case we get some wind so dropping pine boughs will be easier to pick up and take out front for the debris man next Tuesday. It's very quiet with only the noise of singing birds. And it is cooler this morning. Yesterday evening at dusk as I sat here "computing" I looked out the window and saw Mr. Snake getting a drink from my birdies' bath. It hangs over my front porch railing. i grabbed Jim's cane, went out and "encouraged" him to wriggle back down into the nearby shrub. He was slow but very compliant. I wonder why he was out at dusk and getting a drink when water is everywhere from all the rain we've been having? I guess the birds are an enticement. I have reconciled myself to snakes...as you can see. And the birds are snake-smart, staying away when he is around. We had a beautiful sunset yesterday, blues and pinks and yellows, making up for this overcast dreary morning with an unwelcome visitor on her way. until next time...c |
