Fantasy or Reality.

How many people in the world would prefer fantasy to reality? I ask this because I am wondering if I am alone in some ways of my thinking. I love to imagine. Build and construct another world, MY world. Building far away lands, houses, situations. I can spend hours in my mind. My fantasy world is heavily dependant on movies and music. So much so that I feel sadness and pain when I find that an actor I was fond of has passed on. I hurt as if I knew them personally. My day often depends on which song I hear in the morning when I awake. I sometimes insert myself into a film I have just seen as if I were really there and that situation were really happening, or imagine myself on a stage in front of thousands playing a song with all my heart. Some would say this is a bad thing. Part of me agrees with them. Instead of going about business I should accomplish, I spend my time wondering if my world should have rolling hills or high sun-lined mountains. Should I see ocean or sit by a rushing river? Should my house parlour be on this side or that side? People that I once knew in school have moved on. Some have gotten married, some have children, some are attending school, some have moved to other places. But I have not moved on, I live in the same house I have for sixteen years. I have no children, I have never known love. I am only now starting to show an interest in school. Others cannot wait for each day, and I cannot wait for a new movie or album to come. I am surrounded with maps of imaginary lands and blueprints of houses that do not exist. I love my own world, my place of true hearts and real ideas. I feel more alive when I am there and I would give anything to make my world a reality. I live more there than I do here. Weeks go by without any real notice of the outside world, but every time I do emerge from my mind I find that life has passed me by a little more. Should I take control and have a real life, or continue the fantasy life I already have? What would you chose?
