Reality sucks!

I can’t seem to wrap my head around work today.  I have so much to do, yet I find myself staring out of the office window or down at my keyboard searching for an escape of some sort.  I am listening to a Celtic CD that I purchased through iTunes and I am blaming it on the gorgeous compilation of notes that whisk me away to that special place in Ireland that I want to be: the rolling green hills.  Medieval fantasy movies have always been my escape from reality and I often find myself dreaming of dirt roads covered by bright green trees that lead to beautiful open fields of flowers with a castle in the distance, calling me home.  I know, I’m a grown woman but the magic that I believe in will not die…reality sucks and it is nice to escape now and then.  Some say it isn’t healthy or it’s childish but let me say this – Since when is worrying about if I can pay bills this month, or am I going to be able to feed my family or reading the news to see who died in the war today, healthy?  I know it’s the world that we live in, but…do I have to?  Thank God for imagination.  I pray that more and more adults can find theirs.

 I recommend this album to anyone who enjoys a relaxing sound or an escape to Ireland (for free)!
