Imagination and Imagery

Starting this off with a bit of random. (Shocker there, right? =p) Although I like to say that 'Rawr' means, 'I love you' in dinosaur, there are some other possibilities to it's meaning. The reason that I say this is, I saw a picture the other day questioning Rawr's meaning. The author said that it really meant, “I'm going to eat you!” This does seem like a much more likely possibility. But, considering that we can not ask the dinosaurs what it truly means, I think that I shall stick with it meaning, “I love you.” (And even if we could ask, we would not be able to understand them...)

Another random string of words put together with honey and glue. (Do not not the paste... >.<) Eating jolly ranchers is... just simply awesome. That is all there is to it. The best candy out there? Possibly not. (Chocolate is the best. However, I group chocolate in a group all by itself... so...) These little jewel colored morsels of surgery and fruity goodness are very nice this evening. But... it's near 10 P.M.... so now I wondering if it's really such a good idea to be eating candy. Sleep (and, fingers crossed, a non-restless sleep) would be very much appreciated. Not likely... perhaps that is why I do not try to keep myself from eating things before I go to bed. I still have bizarre dreams and restless nights non-the-less. So, enjoy the candy I say! (Does it seem that I am rambling to anyone else? Or is that my imagination? Hmm...) But there is one more thing that I would like to add. If I offer you some of my candy... then be sure that it means that I consider you a good friend. Because I do not share my candy with just anyone. (Seriously... I'm a nice person. But I hide my candy and gum... [Gum also has it's own group apparently.. So does Pizza... And bacon.. And ramblings...] I don't just share meh candy with anyone. XD)

Now for the real reason for starting this post. (Besides rambling on about candy and Dino-speak.) You know those cards that psychiatrists show you that have the ink spots on them and demand that you come up with an answer? “Yeah... it looks like... a squirrel.” Well... I kind of have that question for you. However, I do not have any ink spotted cards. This is all within the realms of imagination and imagery.

Okay, this is how it'll go. I'll say a word, like... a wish. Then I'll ask you what you think of, how you would describe that word in a picture. Personally, I would describe this as a shooting star, or a dandelion that's gone to seed. But yet, it would be so much more. The shooting star would have millions of pin prick stars behind it, showing that there are millions of wishes, in the past, in the present, and in the future. The dandelion might be getting blown away by the breath of a small child who has their eyes closed with the hope that their wish will come true, and in the background you see the child in different still frame pictures of their life as they are growing up. Or having the same idea as the stars, and having the background be a whole field of dandelions just ready to be wished upon and then blown away into the air. Well, that is how I would think about it. How would you? (I don't really expect any answers, but I do hope that I get you thinking with this. How would you see these things personally? Instead of from someone else's POV? (POV= Point of view.) Here we go then.

A dream?

True love?

A daydream? (Which is different from a dream, just you know. A dream you have no control over. A daydream is your fantasies coming to life in your mind.)

The future?

A mistake?

Pure?

Wise?

Strong?

These are all things that have meaning, something to put with them. Pure could be a lamb's wool or a dove's wing. The future could be a pending job or starting a family. And perhaps that is what they mean to you. What you see in your mind's eye when one of these words are brought up. But perhaps you see something completely different. So, what do you see?

Sometimes to see something clearly in life, one needs to step back from it, no matter how hard it will be to do so. Sometimes one needs simply to stop and smell the roses, think of others first, or to just keep their mouth closed. Do not forget that life is not just out to get you, or bring you down. Try to remember the best things, the things that make you smile, and the little things. And do not let go of those things.

Have a good day! ^-^
