Imagination is fine, but it needs fuel to survive, to grow–to really set it on fire. What is that fuel? Life–the big LIFE–yes, really experiencing it. And to do that, sometimes you’ve just got to Step Away From Your Computer.
Whether it’s a visit to your local coffee shop to catch up on world news via some of your not so always neutral minded chums… Or, whether you hop on a plane and travel halfway around the world to visit a temple or two, and then find yourself lost in the back alleys of a foreign city. Think of it this way… a fairy is only a plain old Disney fairy until you jump on a train, travel down to the city, and start imagining what that same fairy would be like living among skyscrapers and taxis.
Anyway, as I enter what I consider the second part of my novel, I’ve been lucky enough to do just that: hop on a plane and end up halfway around the world in Thailand. While I won’t be spending much time writing, there will be plenty of adventures and lots of living refueling going on. Below are some pictures from Day two in Bangkok.
There is nothing like a change of scene for inspiration and oh boy, what a great place to find yours in Thailand! Have a wonderful trip Lorijo, soak up the culture and I look forward to hearing more about your adventure.
Thanks, Lottie. My adventures seem tame in comparison to yours…but I’ll do my darndest to have fun. We leave for Phuket tomorrow. I can’t wait. Bangkok is great, but in many ways it’s just another big city. What really sets it apart are the Thai people. They’re so nice.
We miss you already! Hurry home!!! xo ~ Tina P.
