The power of imagination.

       I was alone. It wasn’t loneliness, it was solitude. The absence of desire to communicate with people brought me to this isolated way of life. People thought I was ill but I wasn’t. You wonder how I earned for a living. I was a journalist. I wrote articles for the local magazine “Pet’s life”. You ask me who I wrote about. About a dog. Yes, I had a dog. This stray animal was wandering about my area when it decided to shelter under my porch. The dog was dirty, hungry and exhausted. Suddenly I did the most unexpected thing – I took it home. After I had washed and fed it, the dog looked at me with great warmth and devotion.

      I spent all my time with him teaching to bring my slippers, keys, newspapers and even a teapot. All my articles were about my pet because I was proud of his achievements.

    Once, I decided to make a photo when my dog brought a teapot and poured me some drink. I thought it would be a truly remarkable article. I sent the text with the photo to my editor. The answer came soon. My boss said the article was good but he couldn’t publish the photo of just a teapot and a cup. He advised me to find a real dog posing for the photo.

     I looked around. I saw a teapot, a cup, a tea leaves jar. But no dog. It was disruptive. I felt nothing but devastation. I heard nothing but silence. I was alone.

    Oh, I forgot to say I named my dog Kepler after the planet which doesn’t exist.
