MY PERFECT FANTASY

 

 

 

MY PERFECT FANTASY

I walk through the soft sand.
Dip my toes into the ocean.
The cold water soothes me.
The sun hits my face.
The salty breeze ruffles my hair.
A perfect paradise.
Until I feel the pressure.
A hand tugs my leg.
It’s time to leave my perfect fantasy.
Life has a way of interfering.
A demon rises from the ocean.
Clothing drips from its fingers.
I know what it is.
It’s the demon of laundry.
An ever-present and growing demon.
Will a stack of dishes be next?
Goodbye demons.
I’m going back to my fantasy.
I see dolphins swimming by the shore.
See you later.

Playing your favorite music helps ease the pain of washing.
Then watch your favorite sitcom while folding.
It may take longer but it makes life is an enjoyable journey,
not a bore.

This one gives me a chuckle! Oh, thanks to the rescue of those daydreams that reside in our comfort zone! Yeah! We can visit our comfort zone any time!

I giggled as I read. We tend to dream of idyllic places like this where all of our cares and daily drudgery disappears. Like a wonderful dream we are having until we wake up to the reality of getting up in the morning to go to work.

I've been watching a lot of survival reality shows lately. People are routinely dropped off at places that look like your fantasy. Very soon they realize that they're having trouble making fire and it gets very cold at night. When it doesn't get cold, the mosquitoes and sand flies drive them completely batty. There is no freshwater to be had with all the beautiful blue sea. There are sharks in the water making it difficult for them to catch anything in the sea. While there are coconuts, one quickly grows tired of drinking their milk and only having coconut to eat.

The demons of household chores,
What better place to lose them,
Than a walk along the shores.
