Imagination
Imagination is the one, uniquely human ability that sets us apart
from all other creatures.
It gives us the capability to project into
the future and to look back and experience a past, which occurred long before our own existence.
Whether an author laying pen to paper and giving life to a fictional character, or a nine year old fantasizing about hitting a home run in Yankee Stadium, it is this ability to create a non-existent scene within our minds which gives mankind its genius.
Without imagination we would be nothing, aimlessly wandering nowhere without reason nor desire to exist.
Imagination is what allows us to live, even knowing that someday each of us will cease to be.
Imagination is life itself.
from all other creatures.
It gives us the capability to project into
the future and to look back and experience a past, which occurred long before our own existence.
Whether an author laying pen to paper and giving life to a fictional character, or a nine year old fantasizing about hitting a home run in Yankee Stadium, it is this ability to create a non-existent scene within our minds which gives mankind its genius.
Without imagination we would be nothing, aimlessly wandering nowhere without reason nor desire to exist.
Imagination is what allows us to live, even knowing that someday each of us will cease to be.
Imagination is life itself.
