BEDTIME STORIES

I habitually daydream at night; I'm doing it almost a decade and a half, ever since I was a kid. Usually I will just replace the character from the last cartoon show I've watched but as I was growing up, I tend to make my own stories/fictions in my mind. It's like a movie that I also say 'action' at the beginning and a 'cut' whenever I pause. It's also like reading an empty book with which I'm the one who'll provide the story.  At present there's an ongoing story about a fifteen year old Asian who has been adopted by a childless Western couple, there she will experience every adventure with her new found friends that the world has to offer. It comes in horror, comedy, and family and of course love story, actually she's the love interest of her four best friends and some men that will participate in the story later on. Well it's just about an everyday American life that is patterned to me, ah rather my suppressed wishes. Oh, so much for that, I daydream whenever I have free time or when I feel like it, whenever my eyes gaze at the window, but most especially before going to sleep. All I know is that I've already retreated into my world, a world which is I'm the command center, no worries, sorrows just bliss. Maybe my being an excessive daydreamer is the product of being a Piscean but as I get to know myself more I realized why I do it often at night, it's because ever since I was a baby I've never been introduced to bedtime stories like what other kids do. I've never known Cinderella, Snow White and other princesses in the fairy land until my friends told me when I started to go to school. So instead, I'm the one who tell bedtime stories to myself and take note, of billions of people in the world, I'm the first one who will hear it! Amazing isn't it? I also realized that busy mothers can boost a child's imagination and creativity, and no one can stop you from thinking things since your mind is your own.

Is this more of a blog/journal/diary note than a story?

Good to tell stories to children. I have told my children stories and now I tell stories to my grandchildren. Daydreaming is good sometime. Allow us to escape the world for a while. A very good story. Thank you.
