As lives go, I know mine is not very interesting. However, despite this, I feel exceptionally content most of the time. My motto for this Journal is “I make myself rich by making my wants few” and I really go by that. Doesn’t take much to make me happy. If my life had a theme song it would be that hymn (I don’t know the name of it) that begins, “Tis the gift to be simple, tis the gift to be free…”
Well, anyway, that was before I started writing again.
Now, if anybody were to say to me, “Get a life!” I would immediately reply, “Thank you very much, I already have TWO.” I spend half my time in “the real world,” and half my time in Beatrice’s world. Not only that, but I am beginning to consider another little writing project, just for fun, in which case I would have THREE lives. But, actually, I think that is more than I can handle at the moment.
Still, if one must be burdened with the cares of life (or “lives,” as the case may be), there is no better dilemna to have than this one.
I have countless lives and all of them are amazing and fantastic in their own way. I have my life, lives in my writing, and lives in my entertainment. I really think I spend over 80% f my life in a dream world but it makes me happy so I guess thats good. And I like the real world as well…
As long as you like the real world as well, it’s cool. I like the real world as well, as well.
