Imagination???

Imagination is what makes our sensory experience meaningful, enabling us to interpret and make sense of it, whether from a conventional perspective or from a fresh, original, individual one. It is what makes perception more than the mere physical stimulation of sense organs. It also produces mental imagery, visual and otherwise, which is what makes it possible for us to think outside the confines of our present perceptual reality, to consider memories of the past and possibilities for the future, and to weigh alternatives against one another. Thus, imagination makes possible all our thinking about what is, what has been, and, perhaps most important, what might be.

My questions to you are.............we all seem to have it (imagination) though undeveloped, feared and forgotten in some....but is it a function of body mind or spirit??? is it part of soul or being??? Is it in our DNA or our consciousness??? Does it exist in our memory, our future or in the land of laughs or the drama of dreams??? Can one survive without it????
just wondering aloud.........
I imagine a crowd.............
