Your imagination, continued...

I’m grateful for my imagination. As a child it enabled me to cope through much hardship and as an adult it has helped me solve many dilemmas that, someone not so creative, may not have figured out. I credit my compassion, my leadership success and my passion in life to my creativity, which mixed with a little heart, intellect and spirit, manifests through my imagination.

What I love about the book, Where the Sidewalk Ends, is that the author takes you to places unimaginable and his drawings compliment this creative journey nicely. It really does speak to the inner child when you connect to this wild but fun poetry!

What is the silliest thing you’ve done or written that is reflective of your inner child? For example, I like to still make snow angels after a good winter storm here in Michigan. Leave me a note about something you do to keep this inner child alive; share!

My family was very poor when I was a child. My parents did their best although I felt like we were growing up in the 40's as opposed to the 70's. Of course my childhood set a course that enabled me to be a very passionate and aggressive person. I had a very active imagination when I was young and I spent a lot of time drawing. All it took was a pencil or crayons and some scrap paper; I could look at anything and draw it. I'm sure all of my childhood practice helped me to hone my skills into what they are today. When I sit in front of a blank sheet of paper and before I know it, the empty space comes to life as I create an image filled colors and emotion, I'm actually feeding my inner child. I love the feeling I get as I complete each piece of art. I haven't spent much time, as an adult, drawing but now that I'm making a career of it, I'm excited to give myself permission to play! Have you given yourself permission yet?
