fantasy

one day i am going to have a huge library with a ladder that you have to climb on to get books. that ladder is going to move and i am going to reenact the library scene from beauty and the beast when no one is looking. my library is going to have all sorts of nooks and crannies to sit in and curl up and read all day. my library is going to have a secret door that opens to some place cool. my library is going to be my escape.

one day i am going to have a beautiful music room, with a specific place for all my instruments. but most importantly, i am going to have a big shiny black baby grand piano at which i will sit and play to my heart's content. i will play with all the gusto i can muster, and play with all the emotion and heart that i can. my music room is going to be where i learn to play at least one more instrument before i die. my music room will be where i belt out all sorts of songs at the top of my lungs where no one can hear me. my music room will be my release.

one day i am going to have a huge studio where i can paint. it will have blank walls that i will splash paint over and practice whatever suits my fancy. it will have cupboards and drawers where i can keep all my supplies neatly organized. my studio will be a fantasy land full of artistic whims. my studio will be the place where a masterpiece of the world will someday be painted. my studio will be where my inspiration comes to me. my studio will be my expression.

one day i am going to have an expansive backyard with a hill and a meadow filled with rippling long grass and wildflowers. my meadow will be where i go to pray. i will twirl around and around until i am too dizzy to stay on my feet. my meadow will be a place to just sit with my thoughts while the breeze takes me to places unknown in my imagination. my meadow will be a place of love. my meadow will be just for me, where no one else can find me. i will lie and look at the stars at night in my meadow. my meadow will be my sanctuary.

  1. This is lovely. Illustrate it and make it into a kids' book! Or just make sure it all happens.

  2. I love Belle's library and ladder too! I want to get a big huge golden harp someday and sit with a long white shimmery dress and play it expertly. Make sure your meadow isn't in ND or MN cuz all I can think of is all the mosquitos!! :) you are a beautiful person...im glad I follow you and get to see all your inner beauty too :)

  3. I could picture you in all these places doing all these things--and I loved every minute of it.

  5. What is most interesting to me is the conspicuous absence of other people. I feel Freudian all of a sudden. Still, the fantasies are cool.
