Let Your Imagination Soar

36 Comments

When I was a child I used to enjoy looking for animal shapes among the clouds.

I’ve recently enjoyed doing that again with these streamer clouds that like to hug the mountain sides. What do you see?

I see an elegant snow goose getting ready to take flight.

Happy Wednesday.

  4. Fluffy mountains first come to my mind. Then when I read what you could see, I was saying to myself “I couldn’t…” Didnt get to finish sentence to myself as just as I was going to say “… see that” I could then see what you see. 😊

    1. I love “fluffy mountains.” 😊 The mountains here adjacent to the valley are very old and rounded, so the clouds around would indeed make them fluffy! Snow geese are so beautiful with their black tipped wings.

    1. For many of us it’s displaced by our busy lives. Two years ago I simply didn’t have time to just let my brain go like that. Research shows that it’s also really good for your brain. Imagining causes us to develop more neurons which can reduce dementia.

      1. You’re right. I actually just finished listening to a podcast on Alzheimer’s and how it can be prevented. One of the ways is through brain exercises and keeping the mind engaged. It was interesting to hear that it’s not something that just happens overnight, but rather develops gradually over many years from things like poor diet, lack of exercise, non-restorative sleep, stress and not challenging our brain.

  11. I do that quite often – look for shapes in the clouds. I also see them in my tile floor, which has subtle, swirly shapes here and there. Clouds are fun though because they are always changing.

  15. One of the things I’m realising (again) is the old saying reminding us of “all things in moderation.” If we’re constantly racking up years of poor diet, exercise, sleep and stress, our bodies can’t recover properly and they eventually go into decline in some way or other.
