fantasies

we've all had our fantasies. to go somewhere, or to do something, or both. and sometimes we actually get the opportunity to live out our fantasies. we plan, sparing no effort, to try an ensure that the reality matches the fantasy. we build it up in our heads. and then when we actually get to live it out, more often than not, the reality doesn't live up to the fantasy. basically we've hyped it up beyond expectation. after this happens a few times, we seriously contemplate attempting to live out the fantasy. maybe we'd be better off just letting it remain so, so that it remains beautiful in our minds. BUT... what if reality did match the fantasy? what IF reality exceeded the fantasy? the experience is sooo mind-blowingly awesome that you wonder what you've done to deserve this. would you be willing to go even further? would you try and make that fantasy a part of your regular life. OR would you take it for a lucky one-off occurrence and just appreciate it as such and savour that memory for the rest of your life.. what would you do?
