Hello beautiful people,
I spend a lot of time in my head skimming through thoughts and trying to make sense of it all. For every thought, there is always a question behind the tunnel I dig myself into. Who am I, and who do I want to be? How do I want to be perceived, and how much do I care if I am seen incorrectly? Does it matter, and do I care? That question is easier to answer because, for the most part, the answer is no. I have developed a “fuck 'em” mentality when people believe they have figured me out, and couldn’t be further from the truth.
There was a time when being in my mind scared me because I found it so easy to escape to little pockets in my mind. I’m an artist with a vast imagination, and pressure—that is how so many artists have lost their damn minds. God forbid I go crazy because I spent too much time imagining myself sitting under a big ass tree by my lake or running through a field of flowers. I was coping in the best way I knew how. Those images represented for me what it meant to be at peace and to be free. So, now the mission is to find a way to get there in my outside world.
I’ve come to appreciate different things about the way that I think: my ability to see things from different angles and notice patterns that most people overlook. It’s kind of my superpower. I believe it is one of the things that will make me a great writer one day. After all, people love a multifaceted character and a writer who can surprise you with a twist.
I’m not sure of the message I’m trying to convey with this blog, people. I guess the point of it all is that it’s okay to dream and spend time in your head, but it’s even more important to find solace outside of it. Embrace your imagination, let it run wild, and let it inspire you on your next endeavor. Lastly, see a therapist to work through your dissociation so you don’t end up senile, lol.
