Imagination!

Imagination is poor men fortune,

Rich men target,

Mad men intuition.

 

Tell me if you don't mind, in what category you belong?

It doesn't matter in what category you belong because we are all the same ...........Laughing

"Imagination is more important than knowledge"Albert Einstein.

The world of imagination makes the progress move further and further and one day ( I am sure in it) that it  will be possible to put the wings on and to fly  for a picnic to warm place and to ski in  the snowy mountains.

 Who am I?

 In  a way,I am poor as I like to dream" what if I were..."

 In a way I am rich as I dream about a tree-garden and I WILL get it in 2 years.

 And in a way I am weird( oh! mad sounds too much crazy!Smile)and the imagination of a weird person can be a real disaster sometimes.Tongue out

 

 I like Salvador Dali's paintings in this way as his imagination and associations are wonderful!

Look at  how the time is flowing!
