Introduction

In my mind

I imagine these scenarios where I can be this amazing person.

I can be the hero of the story

rather than the sidekick or supporting character of everyday life.

In my mind

I imagine that I am brave,

that I can stand up for myself and others

and win every argument that comes my way.

I get so caught up in these stories

that I can lose hours at a time

watching them play out like a movie when I close my eyes

and allow my imagination to take full control.

But if I don't allow the story to play out

or try to cut it short,

I'm left wondering all-day

where the story could have gone.

So here is every chapter

of the inner workings of my brain

and the stories I have allowed to play out

just for my own peace of mind.
