Box full of Ideas

I think having some amount of imagination and creativity wouldn't hurt anyone.We shouldn't live with a script for our daily life.Ironically to a large extent we do. In the humdrum of daily chores we are tied down by doing the same things over and over again till it becomes like our second nature or like breathing. We fail to understand that we add color to our life by using our imagination and having some spontanaeity in our life.
I am not sure how many of us have read the books written by J.K Rowling.I am sure some of us brush it off as childish book and she is ofcourse categorised as a children's writer needless to say not many of us think its appropriate her books. I can shamelessly admit I love Harry Potter. What amazed me about the book and the movies ofcourse is the imagination and the amount of details she has provided for a fictitious world.Sure there are castles in Scotland but there are no flying dragons and talking mice but everything seems so real for awhile after you finish reading one of her books.
Alternative thinking seems uncanny but definitely worth exploring. I would love for my kids to keep their imagination alive and not get caught up in the monotony of growing up.To a large we don't lose our imagination but we are afraid to use it as we grow older thinking its childish to even think of following some of the funky ideas you might get into your head.I say we will never know unless we try it so go ahead and follow your mind and give it a shot.You never know when you might land on some unexplored world and will have fun writing about it later for millions to enjoy it. So lets keep in the child in us alive, its worth the try.
