There is no
Life I know
To compare with pure imagination
Living there
You'll be free
If you truly wish to be ~ Gene Wilder in Willy Wonka

These are the words from a beloved song, “Pure Imagination”
from Willy Wonka.
Are they true? Yes,
they can be true.
However, these words can only be true IF you choose to BE FREE within
the ideas which you allow to have FULL FREEDOM to flow within your mind.
This is the problem for most people.
First IMAGINE.
Then DARE TO DREAM.
Finally, ALLOW YOURSELF TO SOAR.
Many people can ‘imagine’ when they give themselves the time
to have their imagination take flight. What about taking the time? So many people say, “they don’t have enough
time” to do this.
Why is this so?
Perhaps not taking the time, is about not making the time?
Is this the cyclical process of denying one’s own
imagination to take flight?
Ask any child “Do you have enough time to imagine, dream and
soar?”
No child will give you the excuse “I don’t have enough time.”
Ask a teen the same question.
Many teens are filled with dreams…..so many dreams they
have.
Ask an adult… sure, a few adults will tell you they have
imagined their dreams.
Some will tell you they have forgotten “how to dream”…. And others
still will say once again, they have no time to dream.
What?
I’ve been trying to process and understand how humans limit
themselves in this arena.
Let's remember this -- imagination is YOURS. It costs nothing. Having an imagination does not discriminate.... it is free for you to access upon your own will and it is a beautiful freedom to have. Having an imagination is not for a select few. You are allowed to imagine. You are allowed to dream.
Your mind can be a beautiful thing, when you get out of your own way to use it to its optimum and maximum capacity.
It is the same thing for your heart. When you allow both to do the same.... WOW.
Life for me has been about visualizing, dreaming, ‘seeing
it’ and putting conviction, trust, faith and belief in it - not just for myself, but for helping bring things forward for others to realize within themselves.
Therefore the idea of back-shelving imagination is foreign
to me.
Sure, my human ears can hear you as I listen to your words,
though this human and this soul cannot comprehend the reality of this being so,
other than you have put up walls to deny yourself this freedom.
Perhaps it is your conditioning, your environment, maybe you
have many naysayers or people who don’t believe – but let me ask you… DO YOU
BELIEVE?
Who was it who told you to stop
believing?
Who told you not to dream?
Who did you give permission to, to allow them
to steal your imagination power to dream?
Why bother to enable this energy, when your imagination can be a
powerful, magnetic, and beautiful resource for dreams to take flight?
Let us not waste a second of energy or time pointing fingers of blame --- for it is TIME FOR YOU TO RECLAIM IT RIGHT NOW.
Here I will tell you that YOU HAVE THE POWER TO RECLAIM YOUR
IMAGINATION.
YOU HAVE THE POWER TO RECLAIM ‘DREAMING’ ONCE AGAIN.
And yes, my Dear Lovely Souls – you have the power to SOAR
once you return to this energy space of imagination and dreaming.
My soul (and my human) have lived with the idea that no
matter how many obstacles may come across your pathway, no matter how hard the
summit may be to climb, and whether you go against the toughest grain or try to
swim upstream against what seems like a tough current – whatever creativity you
have thriving within your heart…. It is possible to VISUALIZE AND REALIZE.
VISUALIZATION is the only pathway to not only putting things
in your ‘mind’s eye’ – but putting your reality into a place of understanding
that the power of your imagination is the stuff from which dreams themselves
are fueled.
Your life, your heart, and your soul thrive on the purpose
of visualization, imagination and dreams.
Here you can imagine greatness and with pure intention in
your heart to see things through, you can create amazing things, inspire and
produce change, spark that seed into thriving with upward mobility and
spiraling growth for something beautiful.
So just imagine… if you will what your life could look like
if you dared to dream and allowed yourself the belief that your imagination
could take flight and soar?
Ahh…
Namaste.
