It wasn’t long ago that I can remember daydreaming as a kid – my imagination running wild, with my own creativity and thoughts that were unique to me. \u00a0Such is the case with Narnia: Prince Caspian. \u00a0I remember reading the book – and imagining this whole new world – a world in which only I knew. \u00a0My imagination created it – and it was mine for the taking.<\/p>\n
That, I suppose is the problem with movies that were derived from books – your personal imagination need not apply – because someone has already done the daydreaming for you. \u00a0In my opinion, that’s a crime. \u00a0Too many children today are not actively imagining, daydreaming, because someone has imagined something for them to experience. \u00a0Tv shows and movies tend to allow you to be numb watching their programming. \u00a0Reading was always, from my experience, a very interactive task. \u00a0While reading – your mind was also “painting the picture” \u00a0to transform words on page into a tangible, \u00a0imagined picture.<\/p>\n
Everyone’s imagination is different – No two people will come up with exactly the same thing. \u00a0And that’s what really makes it amazing – the uniqueness of yourself. \u00a0That should never be hidden – everyone should be free to be as creative as they want to be – to dream big dreams, \u00a0and have great visions. \u00a0In a sense, certain types of media, already\u00a0aforementioned\u00a0, have stolen dreams of those who will never think up something fresh and new – because someone has presented their imagination to them instead of their own.<\/p>\n
