Have you ever lain on the roof alone and seen the sky at night? Have you ever seen the scattering sunset from behind a soufflé of clouds?
There is a difference between escapism and dream. Dream never let you escape. To wish to get lost in the moonlight for ever is the thought of escapism. On the contrary, to think about your ungratified desires from memory drenched with intense emotion in an imaginative way is the dream. Dream is neither the shadowy visions while sleeping nor any fanciful fairytale-wish.
Dream is the practicality that makes an escapist coming back to reality.
Dream is the Zephyr that makes an escapist alive and full of life. Dream makes an escapist dream to escape again.
A creator must be a dreamer and may be an escapist.
Escapism is necessary, I think. To revive yourself, to breathe again, to make your own little universe starry, escapism is needed. But you are bound with duties. Don't forget. That is why you have to come back to the concrete practicality.
Dream is your child. You are the mother. So just like a mother, you have to sacrifice something, you have to fight in the reality to see a smile on your child's face, i.e, to make your dream smile.
Everything is valuable in their own way and we have to cherish both - the practicality and the philosophy, but in the proper time. Perfect timing is the emperor of all.
So dream a new world, dream your dream and try to turn the dream into your smile.
