Well, imagination is something that is unique to everyone. When asked about what imagination is, and what my opinion is on it, I can safety say that imagination is both the most beautiful thing, and also the most deadly.
Firstly, lets look at the beauty behind imagination:
Being able to use your imagination is one of the most unique and wonderful things, since everyone has their own ideas and creations flowing through their heads at any given time. While the imagination can vary, in so many ways, this means that it is completely and utterly unique to everyone, which means that everyone has their own ideas to share within the world. While one person may imagine a beautiful forest scape, others will imagine ongoing wars and battle for the sake of fighting and being heroes. Each of these are stories that we all make on a day to day basis in our heads in order to disconnect from reality.
However, imagination can also become rather....well, deadly:
Thing is, life is always full of struggles, and that can sometimes translate into our imaginations. now, while that can vary in many different ways, in some people this can go wildly out of control. While some will find it hard to sleep out of sheer fear or anxiety about oncoming events, others may find incredibly violent ways to deal with them through the use of imagination. While this is not a bad thing (Everyone thinks of doing something bad in their life, its just a natural thing.) the problem comes from those who cant disconnect fantasy from reality, and then act on their imagined anger.
While i would be happy to one day go into the psychology behind it all and the detail behind the imagination, i would much rather leave that for another day, since i am really tired and i would rather be super active to tackle that subject. ^w^
But yeah, thank you so much for the question ragkt! ^w^
