Imagine---"Thinking For Yourself"


IMAGINE- To form a mental image of something not seen or present.


When John Lennon laid down those words from his head onto a piece of paper a long time ago, I imagine he was writing about a subject he seemed to know little about; and that was theism. I can only imagine that was the case, since I was not present to see him record his words; words that will have different meanings to different people.We seem to have lost, and should be seeking, the human spiritual ability to use our imaginations the way we should, and begin the life long process of "imagining", and "thinking for ourselves."

Now upon reading my suggestions,  please close your eyes and begin to imagine:

-the joy you feel yourself and that joy you bring into someones life when you show them kindness, compassion, and understanding,
-the ever present blue sky, even on a cloudy day,
-you are standing at a rim of the Grand Canyon at sunrise, and feel the warmth of the sun ascending your entire body, while you listen to Mother Nature talking to you while holding the hand of a loved one,
-that there comes a time in everyone's life when they must walk alone and into the light,
-a world without Oreo cookies,
-an opportunity missed to tell someone you love them and that you are sorry if you have ever offended them, and then it is too late,
-how your heartbeat slows down or speeds up depending on who is hugging you,
-what a babies breath smells like,
-the odoriferous smell of a freshly baked pie or chocolate chip cookies,
-that you are the carrier of that piece of love that will connect you to the peace puzzle,
-someday someone will disprove the big bang theory and that God does exist, and that you may not have been reaching out to him.



After you open your eyes please know there is a place in your brain and heart where this imagining will be stored forever. All you have to do is close your eyes and you will find it.

Think about that and them imagine it. It can be a reality, and don't let anyone make you imagine or think any different.
