Albert Einstein famously said, “Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions.”

In other words, what we can see in our imagination today we may experience in life tomorrow. He also said, “Imagination is more important than knowledge.” He knew that we humans are limited by how much we can learn, but we are never limited by how much we can imagine.

I have come to realize that I am held back far more by my lack of imagination than by my circumstances. When I believe nothing can be done, I search for a way OUT of the difficulty when I OUGHT to be searching for solutions.

This dramatic and very sad event on Third Avenue, Kenilworth in the very dark days of 1993 had quite a bit of meaning to and in my own ‘little’ life.

“We can forgive, yet not forget.”

“Share, Encourage, Spread, Hope, Love and Light.”
