Creation, blaming and new possibilities
"30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS [13+]
Motivational Monday! Author L. Frank Baum , born on this day back in 1856, once said (regarding his youthful audience's expanding imaginations): "Imagination has brought mankind through the Dark Ages to its present state of civilization...I believe that dreams- day dreams, you know, with your eyes wide open and your brain machinery whizzing- are likely to lead to the betterment of the world." Are you a writer who is shaped by imagination and daydreaming in order to creates, or are you more like someone whose imagination first needs stimulating through the creations of others?

My writing and walking through life is shaped by imagination and daydreaming, my mind buzzing around and making association as I go along. Your eyes watch and sees, your mind clicks and clicks and the writing can commence. The patterns are there; with your inner eye you pick out the marbles and associate. Those are the fruits of some of my writing. The creation of others helps to point out significant markers that you can use in your own work.



*Right*Prompt: They say when a computer does something wrong, it blames another computer. Isn’t it the same with people? Do animals blame others, too? Isn’t blaming someone else an act of refusing to take responsibility? What are your thoughts on the subject?(BC)

Blaming someone else for your own mistakes is an act of bitterness and disappointment about your own decisions. Instead of looking inside to your own responsibility in the matter, the eye turns outside to others. It’s always easier to blame others. It’s a thing only people can do; I don’t think animals can blame other animals since there is self-reflection involved. You have to overlook the scene internally, be discontent about its outcome and blame another for what happened.



*Right*Prompt: "At the height of laughter, the universe is flung into a kaleidoscope of new possibilities." Jean Houston Write a story about laughter, new possibilities, or a Kaleidoscope. Alternatively, you can write your opinion about this quote. (BCoFs)

New possibilities. It feels like a door opens and a light comes in shining on the old scene but with a different perspective. Every year in spring there is the start of a New Year or period in life, buzzing with new possibilities. The air is filled with hope and anticipation. From the old springs the new. Wonderful and full of wonders.
