“I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living. “
—Dr. Seuss
Too few of us are willing to indulge in fantasy. We’ve been told that fantasizing is lazy and childish and has no place in the real world, and so when impossible dreams knock at the door of our thinking, we tend to dismiss them quickly, telling ourselves we must act like grownups.
Once upon a time, however, a fellow named Disney gave apt attention to a small fantasy about a little mouse until he ended up building it into a multi-million dollar amusement park that is still, today, internationally known. There really is no telling what we can come up with when we combine energy, love and enthusiasm with the seeming impossible fantasies we dare entertain. The one thing we should never underestimate, as we look at the world of fantasy around us today, is the amazing power of the imagination.
May you always be willing to dream the impossible dream.
Love
Bill
