We are but simple humans...


I didn't really know where, out of all these threads and topics, to put this, but I was just sitting at home a few weeks back and I was thinking about people in general and then I was thinking about mothers and this just came out of my head, so I hope you enjoy it:


The Sea Goddess


She waves a dish cloth in the air, a warrior in battle.  She twirls her apron, shuffles her feet, clicks her heals, a princess at the ball.  She releases the dishwater, a rushing whirlpool, a goddess of the sea.  She sweeps the crumbs, the dust, the dirt, a caretaker of her land.  Indeed, she is a princess, a caretaker, a goddess, a warrior, yet she is so much more.  She is a mother and the dishes are finally done.

I think that's wonderful! That's totally how I live my life!! I may look like I'm doing simple, stupid tasks around the house, but in my mind I'm an angel, then an anime character, then a royal chef, then a monk etc.

Imagination is one of the greatest forms of relaxation in stressful circumstances. Sure, it's escapism, but uh, why was that bad, again?
