A Word, Different Thoughts
“Closed in a room, my imagination becomes the universe, and the rest of the world is missing out.”
When we talk about perspective, it means an ability to consider things in such different ways, a thought.
All human beings have been created in beautiful ways that we cannot imagine. Everyone can never be the same. That is why as a team, we come together, bringing different ideas to suit a purpose. There are thoughts and how we view things differently. You can see this when you give a particular prompt to 10 people to come up with something creative, this is when you will see different opinions flying though the air. Everyone comes up with something different with one word.
Take for instance, a prompt word “Love.” Many of us have different meaning to this word with experiences to back it up and you`d wondered how they came up with something beautiful. We just need to be creative, that´s all. Our imaginations go wildly when coming up with something new and this is a way to test our abilities in creating something within us.
Just like the prompt words being provided by some members here, everyone starts bringing in their imaginations to work, but at the end, we still come down to the same word given. That is the power of imagining things in our own world.
I could remember as students of the defunct Uptrennd platform then, we were given an assignment to write on “our trip to Mount Everest”, our chancellor told us to go deep into creating beautiful stories, she said we should let our imaginations work as if it was true. We all started working behind closed door, creating beautiful scenarios, each of us trying to make it come out interesting. At the end of it, we all started reading different views as if it was real. I knew our imaginations can travel a long distance when we allow it. I almost gave up during mine but thank God for my teacher then.
Another one came up on Hive days ago with a challenge by dreemport connecting with a community called “The Ink Well”. We were told to write a short story on the prompt word “Unlikely Hero” When I saw the prompt word, I couldn´t wait to start reading from others and at the same time, I started thinking and creating a story on my head trying to match up with the given word. At that time, I was indoor with no disturbance. Coming up with something new is not easy, it takes a creative mind to patch things up in a meaningful way, but the truth is that everyone is gifted with the ability to think in different ways only if we recognize it in us.
If you write story, you are doing a great job because it is not easy forming stories to suit a particular title and most times, there would be story but no title to use. We start to think and create word in our head.
One of the ways to be creative is to generate an idea on a given word. This then allows you by turning an idea into reality, as if it was real. When I was coming up with the story providing me with a word, I made the story look real. You will notice your subconscious mind generating new and fresh ideas.
Just as I have said, we are gifted and no one is born a dumb. We only need our mind to be positioned calmly to bring something new. With this, we are creative. As a writer or blogger, you must be prepared for creativity because this is what forms you. If you aren´t able to think in a different way, you cannot enjoy being one.
Find prompt words to build you. Travel into an imaginary world showcasing your best talent and the world would marvel at such beauty in you.
If you read to the end, this is my way of appreciating my reader. Thanks so much for your patience reading my article today.

That's also why I am enjoying reading others work here, word by words and construction of different natives in speaking yet they gives variety of meaning to the words. I remember when prompt is also in demand here like weekly we had some article related to each other haha. I missed that kind of article too.🥰
