I think it's funny when people say, "You need to face reality," implying as if living in a fantasy a bad thing. You will often find me retreating there, as the harsh truths of reality warrants a vacation to the Grand Fantasyland. I've had a relationship of going back and forth between both worlds for as long as I can remember. And Fantasyland is nothing more than a safehaven to me. A place where imagination creates magic, miracles happen, and dreams do come true. I'm obviously not referring to a physical place of fantasy, but the spirit of the mind that refuses to succumb to the mundanes of everyday life struggles. i.e. money, career, power/struggles, economics, status quo, etc. These are none of my struggles, however to deny that a fly wouldn't escape from my wallet while working in a less than fulfilling job with monotonous tasks is far from the truth, itself. But what I mean is in life, I don't strive for the above things as much as I would for family, friends, love, free will, and anything related to the spiritual nature of things. I escape as a means to ground myself because I do not want to partake in the dog eat dog world. I will just let all the dogs take care of each other, while I'm on vacation and I'm plotting with the cats, then I come back and set up shop with whatever I take back with me from G.F.L. It could be an idea, a birth of new inspiration, or simply just another perspective of looking at things when I return to reality, instead of getting sucked in, I let the wind guide me (and it points to G.F.L).

To be honest, I haven't visited in awhile, but I know just as much, that I can't live there. Man, I know I have a lot of run on sentences and I gotta touch up on my writing skills, but in my defense, I am lit and you chose to read this, so there.
