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 ** |
| We had a very enjoyable life history group meeting yesterday even though there were only five of us. We enjoyed stories on a grandmother's wake, the Dali Museum in Tampa, a Tuskegee Airman and an NIH medical trial on the Active Mind (one of our members enrolled and told us all about it). And today I was back to cutting up some more limbs. I'm getting to be a pro at this...as long as they are small. It was quite hot...95 degrees F, but I drank tons of water. And tomorrow the Gators play South Florida, estimated to be 93 at the 4:15 kick-off. And...I learned that my single daughter of 60 is on a dating Facebook site and is "conversing" with two possibilities. I'm not too happy about that, but reverse psychology has always worked so I will not say anything against it. I'm not stupid. |
