Happy imagining, Post #6
Feb. 19th, 2024 09:24 amHappy Monday!
This weekend I found myself imagining a visual that made me happy. I am v. attracted to lean(ish), long-legged gentlemen in white linen shirt and cream trousers -- like Niles Crane in that one episode of Frasier--and I found in my mind's eye an image of a favorite actor in said outfit (with Panama hat), sitting at a draped table in an English garden. His profile sharp against green, this imagined personage stretched his long legs out in the sun and gazed off at distant topiary, and a light breeze ruffled his shirt.
Yes, this is ridiculous, but it made me ridiculously happy as well, just for that moment of imagining.*
Is there an image you can visualize that makes you happy? A place, a plant, an interior, an aesthetic?
I wish you happy imagining this week. :)
*I also thought about ficcing the moment, but couldn't decide which of my characters it would suit best.
