An Assemblage of The Random
Have you ever wished that you were a mermaid? Or a fairy? Or some other amazing mystical and superbly wonderful creature?
I think I've said this before, but I used to think that when I got to heaven I would ask Jesus to turn me into a mermaid. Because in my mind, that would be the coolest thing in the world.
Now I don't really think I would ask to be turned into a mermaid (nor do I think such a request would even be considered :P) but I do think that there is no harm in wanting to be something other than you once in a while.
I do think that people should be happy with the way they are, cause it is all that they're going to get, but I also think that it's not necessarily true that you will always be happy with who you are, even if you do know that who you are is who you're supposed to be.
Does that even make sense? Haha.
I think that we all just want to escape sometimes. And my younger self found that escape in imagination. Really not all that different from myself now. I still imagine, but express it in different ways then when I was younger. I now express myself much more through writing and music. When I was younger I tended to do more art and poetry. Journaling. Things like that.
