Escaping the realities...

"Life is not a bed of roses", whoever said that had their reality check glasses on... Its true, and no one can deny the fact that life is a ride that takes you high sometime and low on the other. 
The spark of this title comes from a little discussion (should actually say a heated argument :D) I had,last weekend, with one of my friend (lets say A, just to make narration easier). The theme of the discussion was about our another common friend(say B) who has a huge crush and great affection for a movie actor(say X :D)..yeah, we r friends n we talk ;). so the point of discussion was that A was really amazed by the over-rated reaction of B when he said that X isn't worth to be adored so much and its really unrealistic to love someone crazily who a matter of fact is not even real. So he felt that B is being immature by fighting to her friends for a movie actor that she fantasizes about... As usual everyone kept standing on their opinions. Later that night I realized that B is not being immature, its just her small way of escaping the reality. And even if we don't accept all of us have a window in our heart that helps us look away from the reality. When we were kids this window was very big, almost like having no walls at all . But as we grow we keep placing a brick of reality and make this window smaller and smaller with each passing day... Like for my friend B idealizing the actor X is her little escape from the reality, Naming my soft toys and talking to them like kids is mine :) (It might sound crazy but m all sane ;) ), Some have a habit to write diary, some have imaginary friends and some just dream about stuffs way beyond reality. But my friend A did make a fair point well made. His concern was that the thing that B has for X, is it just an escape or a transcendence (i.e,  a state of being or existence above and beyond the limits of material experience)?? That indeed is a concern. Fantasizing and dreaming does help to run from reality for a little while but one should know how far should they run. Its like setting a wake up alarm before you go to sleep, the alarm goes and you wake up from your dream to the real world. So letting that small window be there in your heart is not being immature and kiddish. And believe me talking to your soft toys sometimes is perfectly sane :D... All we need to do is keep a check. That escape takes us to a kingdom where we are the princess and the prince, so its good to visit your own kingdom once in a while...
