title: Imagination: innovating the could be.
abstract: Imagination is powerful. It may bring questions to mind or bring clarity to wondering about something. Imagination may bring new thought, new ideas, and new possibles to day-to-day thinking, contemplation, and being. In this column, imagination will be explored first through a nursing perspective and then examined through the lens of philosophers and other great thinkers. The column concludes with discussion of imagination as it relates to the Humanbecoming Teaching-Learning Model.
