 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   |
| I just heard from a good friend this morning that she had fallen and was in the hospital for a few days. She is a very private person and never asks for help. Thankfully, she had her phone and called her neighbor who immediately came to her rescue. She is in a critique group with me and feels like she won't be able to attend this time even though it is on Zoom. Her speech was slower and I felt like she was really concentrating on her words. She will be 85 in April. She cracked some bones in her sacrum but is getting around with a walker, very painful. Although the doctor did not seem to be worried about it (her words), she has a crack in her skull with a small amount of blood showing up behind one eye (nothing to do about that, he says, except allow time for it to reabsorb. I am very worried about her. |
