Imagination

Remember when you were a child, and you didn't need toys or gadgets to keep you occupied for hours? Sure you had the latest toys because you wouldnt stop begging your parents to get them for you. But you didn't NEED them. All you really needed were a few simple household objects and your imagination. Your imagination took you farther than you ever thought you could, and back then you didnt think much of it, but i look back now and wonder, where did we ever come up with all that?
Maybe its true what they say, that children have a seventh sense, that they are gifted or that they can see things that adults cannot.
It was a time where a bed became a pirate ship, under the table became a cave, a few chairs and blankets became a house and you could spend hours and hours creating your own story line, being the characters in your own adventure. Whatever you wanted, you were in control. and I loved it.
Why can't we do it anymore, whats so weird about wanting to play a game when your in control from your very own imagination? When you're a child, its cute. When you're an adult its just plain crazy. Maybe the adults that are still imagining their own adventures and using their imaginations are not the crazy ones, maybe we are for losing sight of the wonderful imagination we once had.
