QotD: Daydream Believer

What do you daydream about? Is it something far-fetched, or something that might actually happen?

I have a tendency to daydream about making my life a better one to live.  In reality, I am bored with my mundane and tepid day job, but I need it to survive.  I get tired of doing the same thing day after day like a hamster on a wheel...jogging in the same place and going no where....pointless, really.  I am bored with the same old movies and the same drab beers on the weekends.  Meaningless conversation with people who have nothing but superficial drivel to contribute. "How are you?" (asked as if they care) "What have you been up to?" (while they pretend to be interested as they listen)  Really, I just want to have deep conversation with people who care about the things I care about...I know these people exist somewhere...therefore I paint and take pictures to present my ideas in hopes that these like-minded people will find me.

Yes, I DaYdReAm in CoLoR...I figure if I am to attract unique and interesting people, I must become the unique individual, myself.  I daydream about quitting my job, dying my hair a multitude of colors, embarking on adventures with my camera and publishing books that contain my projects to distribute any way I wish.  There would be no limit to what I could do!  Wear feather boas if I want to...and bikini tops and stripey socks of every color!!  I want to chase butterflies and run through the grass in an open field with my arms outstretched and my red/blue/green/purple hair blowing in the wind!!!  I think about running up the stairs to the roof of the tallest building I can find, collapsing as soon as I come through the door, admiring the clouds in the sky from just a bit closer to them, while catching my breath.

I daydream about being completely free.  Being spontaneous and taking every opportunity that comes my way, with no thought or rationality.  Just doing whatever interesting thing pops into my head, as soon as it shows itself to me.  I wish I could be a bird...live in a tree, or the letter 'O' on some supermarket sign...high above those who said I couldn't be free...dropping 'presents' on them from my aerial home.

Woah, this is getting a little bit silly, I guess...time to re-enter the real world...I'm still here, no worries.  Just SO nice to visit the world I daydream about...sometimes.  :)
