What is the imagination?

What is the imagination?

I am imagination. I can see what the eyes cannot see. I can hear what the ears cannot hear. I can feel what the heart cannot feel.
Peter Nivio Zarlenga
What would life be with it?? But I have to ask… have you lost some of it along the way? I seem to have had tons when I was a kid, but somewhere along the line, logic took over. Now that’s hardly fair. I am going to have to set aside a little time for some old fashioned day dreaming. Haven’t done that in a long time either!
What was the last thing …read more

Did you dream last night?

Did you dream last night?

Without leaps of imagination, or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning.
Gloria Steinem
Do you believe that your dreams mean something? Could it be that your dreams are trying to tell you something?? There has to be some reason we dream don’t you think??
“There is no universally agreed-upon biological definition of dreaming. The dogma states that dreams are associated with REM sleep but the evidence for this is not strong.

If you want to write you have to be willing to be disturbed.

Actually, I do some of my best work sitting in a coffee shop. I tend to like the hustle and bustle that is all around me. I guess it comes down to what works best for you. Now the odd thing is that I can’t work at home with the radio on.

Britney on Madonna bandwagon?

Britney on Madonna bandwagon?

“Despite already having two young children on her own, Britney Spears is reportedly considering adding another addition to her young family.
The pop star has allegedly hinted that she would like to adopt an underprivileged African child, after witnessing the goodwill of her mentor Madonna.”

You have to feel a little sorry for those twenty something actresses who are trying so hard… not to get left behind.
