A Wonderful Imagination

This place is a warm place to be. It is full of people, at the same time people does not exist. Also the place is whatever you want to be. It can be a tropical place or it can be the biggest mountain of your dreams. In fact what I'm trying to describe may be different for each person that read these words.

This place is so big that it can not fit on the entire earth. For some people it may be so small that for them, it would be impossible to live there.

To actually get access to this wonderful place; there is no need for packing but you will need to be very open; moreover, creative and the most important thing let yourself out of the ordinary.

            This place can smell like whatever you want. Some people that  experimented this said that the experience was the best that they could ever have. In fact we all have been in that place more than once. You still do not get it.

This place always has good things. After all it is whatever you want it to be.

            There is only one problem. Because of this modern world we live in, that place is beginning to be forgotten. It is getting hard for people of all ages go to that place; even though, we have it so close. Our modern world is destroying the most wonderful place created on earth.

So I invite you, as you read these words to picture something in your head. Once you have it; feel it, smell it, touch it. If you did it you are one of berry few that still have that skill.

            For me as I write this words, I am picturing a place full of trees and a lot of wild animals. In other words, I am in the woods. 

            I feel the warm air; I am walking and I am watching; bears with family and they are not dangerous; moreover their little cubs are coming to me. I am touching them; the sensation is amusing. I keep walking and as I walk, I smell pine trees. Wait! I see chipmunks climbing a tree, and they have nuts in their mouths, some kind of smell drags my attention, so I follow my nose.

Finally, I got to the place and what I'm seeing is out of the ordinary. Apparently, it appears that I am in some kind of grill. The weird thing is that no human is there, or even near. I am afraid to take the food; on the other hand, I am starving after my long race. I Start walking around and a big animal, a bear starts getting closer so I stop. The bear says, "Come on eat something before it gets cold", so I start eating. The food is delicious; every sense of my body is on. I can feel the heat of the meat in my mouth. I can taste spices and I mean natural spices.

            Finally after eating, all of the animals that were there started to ask me questions for example What was my world like? Why I was the only one there? But the most important questions of all came from a cub that said, "Mister. Why is nobody here with us any more?” I did not know what to say to him, you know why? Because I did not have the answer... I am not everybody.

you may want to keep that question in your head. Why are not you with them anymore? The place is there for you; it is just up to you to IMAGINE.

Use your imagination and many other places will be there for you. The best part it is FREE, and you are your only limitation. So imagine, dream; but most importantly create a better world. How? Well I leave that to your imagination.
