It is an illusion that youth is happy,an illusion of those who have lost it; but
the young know they are wretched,for they are full of the truthless ideals which
have been instilled into them, and each time they come in contact with the real they
are bruised and wounded. It looks as if they were victims of a conspiracy; for the
books they read,ideal by the necssity of selection, and theconversation of their
elders, who look back upon the past through a rosy haze of forgetfulness, prepare
them for an unreal life.
They must discover for themselves that all they have read and all they havebeen told
are lies, lies, lies; and each discovery is another nail driven into the body on
the cross of life. The strange thing is that each one who has gone through that bitter
disillusionment adds to it in his turn, unconsciously, by the power within him which
is stronger than himself.

Though too much idle daydreaming may make one impractical,somedaydreaming. when not
being engaged in something that requires attention, provides some temporary
happiness, calmness and relief from stress. In your imagination you can travel
anywhere in the speed of light without any
obstacles. It can make you feel free,though temporarily,and only in the mind, from
tasks, difficulties and unpleasant circumstances.Imagination is not limited only
to seeing pictures in the mind.It includes all the five senses and the feings.One
can imagine a sound, taste,smell,a physical sensation or a eeling or emotion. For
some people it is easier to see mental pictures,others find it easier to imagine
a feeling,and some are more comfortable imagining the sensation of one of the five
senses.Training of the imagination gives the ability to combine all the senses.

永和九年农历三月初三,王羲之一行四十多人,来到山水秀丽的山阴兰亭(今浙江省绍兴市
郊区)行礼,以迎接春天的来到。其时风和日丽,诗情画意。那一天诗人们乘着酒兴,写下
了 26 首诗歌,最后由王羲之作序成文。可以想象,王羲之乘着酒兴,在极短的时间里用鼠
须笔在蚕茧纸上写下共 28 行 324 字的《兰亭序》。据传说,几日后王羲之想把此文重写得更
好一些,但是最终都是徒劳,遂使《兰亭序》成为千古一绝。从作品中我们完全能够体会到
书写者当时无比愉悦舒畅的心情,作品中文字线条细腻,行文优美流畅。虽然只是一篇作文
的草稿,但是《兰亭序》却是中国书法成为艺术形式的最初典范,因为它不仅开创了书法"
飘逸俊美"的艺术风格,而且也将"艺术表现人生"的传统精神一直延续至今。
