Living In Another World

The world in which we live - dirt, the earth, trees, people, animals, cars, pollution, an economy, languages, love, hate, and everything in between. It is such an interesting place - one could keep busy for the rest of their lives. Oh wait, isn't that what we do? Beyond the world we live is the most extraordinary world - The Literary World! These deep dark caves of the unknown that we can travel into without leaving our seats. The people, places, and adventures brought to life with 26 letters of the alphabet on white paper pages are brought to life somewhere between our eyes and brain (which isn't a lengthy travel). It is magic. Magic I'm telling you - to form up the images in your head like a ball of modeling clay and form it with direction from a writer's instructions. Some of the feelings and situations that propel themselves into our eyes will permanently take up residence in our mind! A little branded image stored away forever changing our view or possibly laying low until we need to pull the impression up in reference to new information. This magical process started long before it got into our hands. The spark of life began when the story emerged in a spare room of a writer's imagination. What room you ask? It's an extra wing of imagination that some people are born with - yes a wing for some. It's an extra brain area that goes beyond just normal living space. It flowed beyond the initial spark and flowed like lava. Hamlet isn't real? He is alive and well with his whole gang in my mind, minds everywhere, alive on shelves, and alive in the Literary World.
