By Katharhynn Heidelberg I think we look down on whimsical folks a little more than we ought to.
Whims are by definition silly flights of fancy, born of spontaneity rather than logic.
We re in denial. Some of the best things in life are born of whims. In 1994, a whim moved a family member to poke his nose into a box of kittens outside of a local supermarket. I wasn t very crazy about that tiny kitten at first. He was whiny, looked like a pile of congealed oatmeal, and besides, he kept getting lost between seat cushions.
