Creative people have vivid imaginations....that's what allows them to be this way...

Imagination can work for or against you....

When it is working for you life is great...

When it works against you in things seem awful...

And yet most of the time it is only your mind making up stories which 95% of the time never happen...

Next time smile and ask yourself is this another Story....

Best wishes...

I love this.. It is so true. I constantly have these scenarios in my mind of the worst things that may happen to me or someone I love (impending doom.) And the thoughts are so vivid, and dreams for that matter, that they just seem like they have to be real! Then when you think about it, it really is your imagination. But then your mind tells you no it's not, it's real.. Anxiety is very dibilitating

Omg wow this made me feel so much at ease its true my mind always has me thinking worse case scenerios and they never happen.this is awesome #FACTS

Its really hard to control our imaginations but you can ignore few things. Its all our mind, making your mind busy could be helpful. So don't put your mind ideal, do something and start enjoying your life.
