Sojourn into fantasy: Disney World

Don’t believe what your eyes are telling you. All they show is limitation. Look with your understanding. - from the book, Johnathan Livingston Seagull

The thing about DisneyWorld is, there are no limitations. Flying like a seagull or soaring like an eagle is common place. The difference is, unlike looking with understanding, the mind's borders are breached by imagination ... where anything is possible.

Carl Sagan said, "Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it we go nowhere."

I go to DisneyWorld once or twice a month. It's my escape from the Briarpatch. A bailing out; a temporary flight of fantasy from the trappings of man. It is the gentler side of reality. Second only to escaping into the magnanimus depths of the universe; the birthplace of imagination.
