Fantasy World

 

                As I am home resting so that my pain can seize a bit until it is tolerable to go back to work, I am rewatching the Harry Potter movies – all of them. I just happened to turn on the TV and there was a marathon showing. It is a great way to escape from the real world from time to time. HP is a story about true friendship and fighting against evil for the greater good. There are funny moments, sad moments, and even some scary moments – they get me all the time.

                With all the stress that came along with the weekend – presidential elections; spending the day with mom at the ER; driving around the city with all the crazy people – my pain seems to have increased. My doctor always says that I need to live a stress-free life. I aways question him how to do that. No answer, unfortunately.

                Could I have spent the day reading? Could I have watched something else? Could I have slept all day? Sure, I could have done all of that. However, just letting my mind rest by watching this enchanting world, allowed me to get the rest I needed.
