And speaking of growing up... I mean, didn't Bradbury also say you need to throw up every morning? Maybe he was a bit of an odd duck too.<br /><br />I think this is a wonderful post, Bon. We need to be reminded to loosen up. I see so many uptight people in churches, including pastors. There are so many concerns these days. Novelists - take me on a journey to places I have never been and never thought of. It'll do us all a world of good.<br /><br />This is also a challenge to authors - Don't you enjoy what you're doing< or is it just a job? Have fun for you have a unique calling with unending horizons. God called you to a joyful abundant life, inspite of everything.Steve Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02332880875202358601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6360410252358941163.post-22880586290071498702009-10-15T14:24:49.420-07:002009-10-15T14:24:49.420-07:00Enjoyed reading the comments.

Tthey grew up"being entertained" and not having to think of things. In my nieces I see them not playing with little girl toys but being entertained by the TV or going to Sea World or other events. And they have very little down-time-they are alawys going, going someplace. I think we will have a whole generation that will not be challenged with their own abilities and imagination.

Y'all definitely made my day!<br /><br />I love that: "There is no wrong in the realm of imagination. There is only discovery." Beautiful. And so true. <br /><br />I'm reminded right now of "Finding Neverland", of the incredible stories Barrie told that few other than children paid attention to at first. Everytime I see Johnny Depp dancing with the dog (which is really bear), I'm encouraged to imagine!Kristen Torres-Torohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15903038121623389560noreply@blogger.com
