Camera For Imagination
When I was child free from the worries my father faced; I would sit in one corner of my room with my history books open and reading about the sea journey of Ferdinand Magellan to see if our earth was flat or round and I would start seeing endless ocean around me with strong sea winds and music of the tides.
I could smell the salty water around me and hear it splash hard on my ship. I would see beautiful glowing species of fish deep underwater; their glow brighter than that of sunlight fighting to prove its superiority. I would laugh at the sun and mock him saying," look at those lights brighter than yours".
I remember seeing whales twice the size of what they showed on T.V. and I would get scared if this demonic animal would eat my ship with me. But instead of attacking us, it would just smile and swim away. I still remember those deep beautiful eyes of that whale. It had skin tougher than all the leather in the world and shine brighter than brightest of the LEDs.
I wondered where am I? Is this earth or I have been kidnapped?
I did not know who was steering my ship but I think it was automatically being steered; you see imagination is 100 years advanced. Soon my mother knew I was not studying so she called me from the kitchen asking if I have prepared for the test and it is then that I would return back from my sailing thinking if only I had my Kodak camera and show mummy that somewhere far there is a beautiful world where we can go by just opening history books.
It is only now that I laugh about it and wonder on a serious note how would it be like if I had a camera to capture my imagination.
