Imagination

What would we be without imagination?

I live in an attic room. Well technically it is a loft that is right before the attic. But I am just below the roof. My futon is such that if I get up too quickly, I whack myself a good one. I often IMAGINE the ad I would put in a dating site these days.

Single forty-ish man lives in his parent’s attic. No job, no assets, no driver’s license, but he can make ya laugh.

Wow would they be lining up at my door! Anyway, when I am lying in bed looking up at the textured ceiling, it is quite amazing what I will find.

 

The view from my bed

Every time I look, I mean REALLY look, there is something new to see. Faces. Mystical animals. Adventure stories unfolding. It is almost as good as looking at a cloud filled sky!

What wonders to be found?

They (you know THEM) say that “Necessity is the mother of invention.” That may be true, but IMAGINATION is the father. Need alone does not birth solutions. It takes imagination to find answers where there were none before. Anything is possible with the imagination. And it is only a matter of time before imagination can become reality.

A favorite saying of mine: Nothing is impossible. The “impossible” just takes a little longer.

All one needs is an imagination.
