I see the imagination as a &#8216;muscle&#8217; in your brain. If you don&#8217;t use it, of course it won&#8217;t work very well. But once you start using it, it will grow and develop, until voila, you can call on it and use at will.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">And I mean that.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Until Friday, and wishing you a beautiful sunset&#8211;either right in front of your eyes and\/or in your imagination,<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em><strong>Ann<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Happy Wednesday!
