Imagination

My Daughter and I as adults both like the movie Mr Magoriums Emporium. We think the story is great because she pointed out that there is a lack of imagination in adults as well as children. We have removed imagination out of life. Years ago children play involved a lot of imagination. We had many more story tellers then we have now. Adults read to children more, more people used the library then they do today. Arts and crafts is not like it used to be. These are some of the things that kept families going and held together. My daughter and I like to do things together like watch movies, we shop, go to library, go on searches for interesting used books, used vintage clothing. We crochet, make jewelry, needlepoint, try new recipes and experiment in the kitchen and she recently decided she wanted a sewing machine. I wish more families would go back to doing some of the things from many years ago like sitting outside with neighbors, kids running around outside playing and people caring and watching the kids as a community unit. Bring back some of the good ole' days.....
