Our
(my) brain is an incredible gadget. Using my brain I can go anywhere and do
anything in a blink of a second.
Just
now I am sitting here tapping the keyboard. Much, much faster than I can write,
even articulate my thoughts in normal speech, my brain brings me hither and
thither.
I
am standing on a beach in Norway thousand years ago axing oak timber which
later will be a ship going south to raid France and England. I am smelling the
tangy seaside air at the same time breathing the odour of tar in wooden vessels
nearby.
The
next moment I am lying in a meadow in springtime in 2014 listening to the
bumble bees droning from flower to flower. The air is crisp and clear. It is
morning, and I know clouds will start popping up around noon
.
Then
I am sitting in a space ship in the far future bound for the Andromeda Galaxy.
My thoughts are wandering, and there are no limits for my fantasy.
What
I see, smell, taste, touch, and feel is sometimes more real than the real world.
This
is the power of fantasy and imagination. It is for us to use it.
