Imaginative Person:

" Son, you are going to a better place, and I grandma will be there holding your hand guiding you through the door. Remember, I love you and we will never forget you"

Realistic:

" You are going to die a terrible death. You are going to have crazy amounts of pain, you limbs are going to fall off and blood will pour outta your veins. There is no heaven and you are never going to wake up. Once we burry you, worms are going to eat you and your skin will become food. Snakes will be crawling thru your skull as well. Oh by the way, you were a mistake so we are actually grateful you are dying."
That is your reality, and your normal interpretation. Others may view those scenerios as reversed.

Realistic and Imaginative are just relative to your own personal belief system. For example, someone who believes thay talk to God everyday would consider a person who prays realistic; a person who does not, would not.

I generally gravitate to people of my like mind, whether others think of it as realistic or imaginative, as these are the people I relate to. Don't get me wrong, I find people who have different ideals and visions interesting, I just generally don't have lasting friendships or relationships with them.

there are many different situations to interpret, but that is one that came to my head first.....if you aren't imaginative, then you aren't that fun of a person.

It's all rather subjective, I don't think there's a right or wrong answer to this. Each viewpoint is open for debate. Friendly debate, hahaha.

debate = fun

Each viewpoint is right to the person stating it. I don't plan on changing someones point of view because then it is no longer their point of view.

True, you can have imaginative people who are realistic and vice versa, they may have a bit of both.

All in the presentation and if they can keep me interested in what they have to say.

I imagine myself to be a fun person, and turns out, I am!

I also imagine myself to be good in bed.

You can talk to god all you want, but if it talks back, you're a little too imaginative.

You'd rather be a zombie though eh? Instead of killing yourself?
No way man, are you crazy? did you see the recent documentary in theatres? land of the dead? there was the mechanic zombie that went to college, not only did he figure out how to use weapons, but he realized he doesn't need to breathe and can walk under water.

By volunteering myself and injecting myself with zombie plasma, by embracing the essence of the undead, i believe i will be far better off than i would be as zombie food or a forced convert.

think about it man!
