Imagination is being able to create pictures and feelings in your mind that are not there in the real world. Your imagination is often at its peak when you are young, and I encourage you to hold on to your ability to imagine as you grow older - here's why!

Creativity
Keeping your active imagination is useful to help with your creativity! When you are able to come up with images and stories from scratch, you will find you can easily create interesting wrtiting, and you might even find you can draw or paint things that don't even exist in real life. What's more, you have the ability to think of ideas that are so original that no one has ever used those ideas in their art ever before - wow!

Boredom
What better way of stopping your boredom than creating your own stories in your mind? I always use my imagination while trying to go to sleep, creating amazing fantastical tales in my mind and seeing them as if I was there. For me personally, this can really help me sleep, and it also leads to some really exciting dreams!

Conversation
When you talk with friends, being boring is no fun. By using your imagination, you can create exciting stories and relive moments from your life in the most interesting ways possible, making your conversations with others far more exciting! If you can become the storyteller of your friend group, your imagination can truly help you by holding the interest of others and ensuring that your mind stays stimulated.
