Escape from the world

There are always times where you just want to run away from everything. There's been plenty of times where I've wanted to just curl up and just sleep. Not out of laziness. Well, not always out of laziness. Just as a means of escape.

Reality can be hard to deal with sometimes. It's hard to escape reality though. So that's why there are always those days where you do nothing or just procrastinate. Sometimes it's because it's a coping mechanism. Sometimes it's just what we revert back to in order to maintain our sanity. Sometimes it's out of habit or laziness. And of course, there are other reasons.

It's strange because I'm pretty diverse and I can handle almost anything thrown at me when put to the test, and I love working hard (like I said, it's strange ... I'm strange). But I also love being lazy. My bed is actually my happy place. Or, as my sister puts it, as long as I have a pillow I'm pretty happy. (I'm actually in love with pillows). My sister does joke that I have a look of love when I'm cuddling a pillow; it's like it's my boyfriend or something. Who needs a man when you have a pillow huh?

(Bed sweet bed <3).

Sometimes just being warm and comfortable, left alone to think or not think is pretty nice. 


They say ignorance is bliss. I agree with this to an extent. Ignorance can also be harmful. But when it's blissful, it's really nice. I think that's why I like aimless thinking, daydreaming and getting lost in things. It's a great way to escape from the world.

We all like to escape from the world. Why do you think we all have hobbies and daydream? I get lost in a lot of different things. In music, dancing, drawing, reading, watching anime and when I rest my head. I always revert back into a bubble which I've maintained since I was young. I think it's partially because my mind wants to escape, and it's partially just a habit. I've always lived in my own little world.

 Sometimes you just don't want to think about things though. The more you think about it, the more you get annoyed or upset. This is how I'm feeling right now. People are annoying me. A LOT!

People are really grating on me at the moment. Especially random people making stupid comments on Facebook. So my way of escaping at the moment is by deactivating my Facebook account. I've never done it before. I've known people to do it to be more productive. But my reason is purely that I'm seeing a lot of things that just irritates me. People can be unbelievably annoying. I know everyone can be annoying, including myself, but right now, it's everyone else that's annoying me with their stupid comments and statuses. I regularly go on Facebook. You know, like a lot of people, automatically going on for no particular reason. So it's hard for me to not read the annoying comments. I can easily ignore and not comment back to people. Although I think bad things (I'm only human), I'm not one of those people that will voice my opinion regardless of the other person. So yeah, I ignore people and bite my tongue regularly, but their obnoxious and irritating comments still annoy me!

You know what I mean. Those comments that make you want to break your computer...

Or bang your head against your desk ...

There's been a growing debate about networking sites and how people use them. It's sad. Some people definitely need to control themselves more on them, but I'm not sure what people can do about it. Things like bullying and people being too outspoken has always been an issue. I don't think it can be stopped. It's too hard to control. This is something I want to cover in another post. But for now I'll say this. If people are getting annoyed or upset by some people's comments, sometimes retaliating will just fuel the fire and it's better to just cut yourself off from those people. You may not have done anything wrong, but if it's getting to you then just cut yourself off. Either by ignoring it, blocking people or deactivating your account for a bit. You're not running away, you're not being a coward, you're just escaping from all of the crap you don't have to deal with. There's nothing wrong with that. Like I've said, people have to escape from things; whatever it is and for whatever reasons. There's nothing wrong with escaping from people or the world. It's something everyone does and needs to do from time to time.

Do whatever you need for you. As long as it's not hurting anybody else, then there shouldn't be a problem. It's reasonable. Everybody needs to escape sometimes.
