I is for Imagination

Kahlil Gibran

    Sometimes, I think I let my imagine go way too wild. :)

    I haven't read "The Prophet" since high school. Might be time to revisit that!

    I think if we try our best, we can get the results we want. though just dreaming is sometimes enough.

    have a lovely day.

    That's a wonderful quote, Jenny, and I love the photo!

    I'm finally home after five days in the hospital. I do NOT like being a patient. Also, my little Acer notebook fell off the bedside table and was inoperable from day one!

    One thing I have for sure is an imagination. I'm often off in my own little imaginary world. Enjoyed the picture and the quote.

    a great quote,which I'm actually able to comment on FINALLY! I swear I read or skim all the alpha blogs as I sit here all day but depending on day I am only able to comment sparodically. this quote reminds me of one I have on my wall from Albert Einstein. "The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious.It is the source of all true art and science."

    Have always admired Gibran's words - a great quote...
    Sadly, I wonder if today's young generation has lost the ability to imagine - so many seem content to be spoon fed information or just veg out in front of some sort of electronic system.

    Imagination can also be disappointing ! I never had imagined that my wallet would be stolen here in Istanbul, lol!

Hi! Thanks for leaving a comment! My handy dandy e-mail assistant always notifies me when you do and I read every single one.

I try to respond to comments with a return e-mail BUT I just noticed that I've been answering a lot of them to blogs that haven't linked their e-mail address to their Google account! I haven't been ignoring your comments, but now I know you aren't getting my reply e-mails! I'm sorry!

I know a lot of other bloggers who respond to comments via e-mail so if you haven't left off your e-mail on purpose, you might want to add it on! If you don't know how you can let me know in your comment and I'll see if I can help you!

Thanks so much for reading my 'Tangents'! Your comments always feel like a hug!
