'imagine' - to pretend or act as if something is real that is not. an
ideal that lives in someone's thoughts.

the sentences he used were not considered imperative style sentences, but
rather suggestive - kind of like in a story where the lady goes 'once up n
a time, there was this forest....'

we know it's not real, but we play along - try our hands at it. and maybe
sometimes, you learn how to bring a little piece of that into regular
life, and sometimes we're all a little better off for it.
