whimsey. a noun meaning a quality or state of being that is whimsical or fanciful; a fanciful or fantastic creation especially in writing or art. synonyms of whimsey include: fancifulness, playfulness, caprice, fancy, idea, impulse, whim and whimsey. of these, the one that stands out is playfulness.
it is the goal of the whimsey project to bring to others, especially adults, the opportunity to engage in whimsical, fanciful play. all too often life's responsibilities and concerns pushes play out of our lives as we age. whether it is realized play is an important component of living. children require play for positive development. adults need it to remain whole. as oscar wilde said, "who said life has to be serious?" the whimsey project will endeavor to live up to mr wilde's words.
although whimsey is associated with spontaneous action, it will be necessary for the project to plan happenings. this will allow as many as possible to participate. along the way, we hope that readers/followers will offer their experiences with whimsical events or ideas for happenings. much will unfold as the project progresses and in this way, much will be spontaneous. we are excited to find out where the whimsey project leads. please come along!
