Titles


Musing...
A title is what? An invitation? A description?  Gift wrap (?) -- as in, how a book is suggested but not revealed by its title – the title wraps the contents.  

How many times have you picked up a book to browse because of the title? Or become intrigued by a film due to the name? Or wondered more about a painting as you find out what the artist calls it? Your imagination has been sparked.  You are going toward the object of the title as well as into your imagination. 

Get Fired Up:
Peruse titles (of books, films, poems, works of art) and when you find one that intrigues you, close your eyes for a moment and see what surfaces. Visit your imagination and take it for a ride.
