Imagination. Life is your creation.
A vivid imagination is the one thing, I feel, that can be with you always to keep company. Each time you are bored in a meeting, you can launch into wondering what the presenter will look like in a pink frock with blue elephants and two strawberry shaped clips for keeping their facial hair in place or what their porn star name would be or what kind of poop they had in the morning . And such. Or when you are pissed off with your boss, you can waive your imaginary magic wand and utter the magic words ‘Ridiculous’ and turn them into a basketful of crap. But that’s the problem; with the latter no matter how I try I can only come up with this solution and must say it is as imaginative as calling a dog Tommy.
Now close your eyes and think about what imagination means to you. To one end of the spectrum would be people who find it difficult to imagine an apple if it’s not within eating distance of them, and at the risk of sounding pompous I can with a ‘fair degree of accuracy predict’ that to them imagination would be visualizing the world to be exactly the opposite. So we’d all probably be walking backwards, throwing up before drinking or pass on the throwing up to someone else.
However, am talking about imagination where walking on the wet sand does not leave footprints. The footprints stay for exactly one second and are like your carbon footprint before dissolving into the sand forever. Now it is difficult to imagine (yes! Yes! I admit it!) who, but if anyone was curious enough to know my past (have you noticed how it is always black or white and never grey), future (which is always a fairyland with question marks on every approach road) and the present (which is highly overrated in my mind. After all the only reason the present exists is so that in future it can become the past and turn black and white) can be fished (dug out would be far too normal right) out from the massive underwater library, where there are water shaped letters (once again people, paper that does not tear in water is NOT imaginative). A large burner while shone through a mirror from a height of 25000 ft above sea level and used to shape out the words AMIRAG (keep up the pace. The mirror is there for a reason) parts the water long enough to read the water shaped letters and make some semblance out of them. However, such experiments done in the past have only left people with sentences like ‘Come one Barbie, let’s go party’ and ‘Aa aa aaie yay. Yellow taxi overdrive’ leading them to believe I will be going to a yellow party dressed as an overdrive Barbie burping to the tune of Aa aa aaie and finally screaming YAY.
My suggestion to you, if for whatever reasons you are really interested in knowing something about someone, one you need to start minding your own business* and two, heck just make it up.
*It is vastly believed (primarily by me and my dog) everything in the universe exits for a sole reason and they/it know the reason the best and it is not for us to bother with that they are already doing.Like if I start bothering with what my dog will eat, then what will he do? I cannot demean his thinking capabilities by doing the thinking for them. Yes I know I do love my dog a lot. With clients though.. hmm some things are better left unsaid.
