‘If you fall in love with the imagination, you understand that it is a free spirit. It will go anywhere, and it can do anything. ‘~Alice Walker
The word this week is IMAGINATION
Definition: the faculty or action of forming new ideas, or images or concepts of external objects not present to the senses."she'd never been blessed with a vivid imagination" 
I have always had a bit of a child's whimsy in my thinking. When I see a toadstool I can imagine little people hiding underneath them. When I hear the word "imagination" I often think child-like or whimsy. In a way it seems like it could go along with curiosity too.
A bit of magic also can go along with imagination.This dream catcher I find to be rather magical and whimsical.Dream catchers were created by American Indians to hang over the bed and catch dreams during the night. I am wondering if imagination might show up in those dreams?
Sometimes, especially with my morning tea, I love to sit in the quiet of the house and let my mind free float, imagining delightful stories and dreaming up whimsical things. I love mind play, I love going outside and finding whimsy in nature. In my office I have a shelf designated the "shelf of whimsy".On the shelf are miniature tea sets, a tiny chair, a marble, sea shells, a paper boat, some mice, a dormouse, a hedgehog, fake flowers, a tiny car, and a few very cute rocks. This might sound silly and whimsical, but for me when I look at that shelf my mind floats to silly stories, sad stories and my imagination becomes quite active.
Are you fascinated with imagination?Do you enjoy letting your mind play a bit? Happy Monday, dear friends!Let's play a bit this week.
