Of imagination

Why is it that sometimes people can see things that other people cant? is it because they have some sort of ability that allows them to witness things that only they can see, or is it something else, something like a hallucination that they believe is there but really isn’t.

I had a friend who once thought that he saw Spiderman late at night in Chicago. This was very comical at the time because he sincerely thought that he saw spider man swing from one skyscraper to the next. At first we thought that he was just trying to be funny, but he still, until this day insists that he saw spider man.

So the question is, did he really see Spiderman like he claims, or are we so unwilling to believe that there is a such thing as Spiderman that we didn’t even give him the benefit of the doubt? As people who use common sense and logic, it doesn’t seem possible that a person (Spiderman actually), is actually a real person and not just a comic book. There is probably a scientific explanation to this. Who knows, maybe someone dressed up in a Spiderman costume and jumped off of a building.
