the line blurry?

The line I refer to is that of reality vs fantasy.

I think I live in a purely fantasy world just that every so often (usually when it comes to working) reality rears its head.

take for instance - talking to someone via the internet for the first time. (no cameras... :P ) when you talk to them - isn't everything you are basing your 'vision' of them fantasy?

If I were to say to you that I'm a white male, tall, brown hair, hazel eyes - and be no more descriptive than that, your imagination will start throwing all sorts of ideas from someone from one's height up to say the height of Shaq O'Neil. Or how the hair is? curly? straight? mohawk? :D

Now, if I were more descriptive and said 5'10", medium length hair - ok, more details but yet the imagination takes some control there.

Ok... let's put this scenario - you play your favorite game... maybe say it's Madden football or Gauntlet or D&D.... when you control the character on the screen, you sort of feel you are that character - even a tiny bit.

Here's another... vacation plans (or even simpler... plans for a weekend)... until they arrive, you fantasize about what you're going to do, where to go and so forth.

As I said, I do these things quite often (especially the latter with vacations.. :D ) , sometimes a bit too much - but I know things are fantasy, but it gives me something to strive for. I was asked in high school for the yearbook as a senior - what your motto would be... or some quote to be remembered by... I thought quite a while on it and came up with what I thought was good and true... "Imagination is the key to creation"... ie.. most of the times if you can imagine it - you might have an inkling of making it.
