Fantasy might be painful, but life without fantasy is even more painful.
About six or seven years ago, my therapist asked me about my fantasy life. At the time I had a rich fantasy life, my own little world even. Well, I wouldn't share the fantasies, because they were mine. But just him asking the question dried up the fantasies completely. I just can't seem to fantasize at all now. I can watch a movie and enjoy, say, Harrison Ford. But I can't fantasize about him other than maybe mentally replaying a scene from the movie. It's the weirdest thing. One question and a delightful pastime of over 30 years vanished not to return for at least these six or seven years.
I miss fantasy, and I hope one day I will regain the ability. (But still there would be no one in my office to fantasize about. :) )
So enjoy that fantasy for me? But maybe substitute Harrison Ford every once in a while. I really like older seasoned men. Who am I kidding. I've liked Harrison since the first Star Wars movie. :)
