Fantasy World

Fantasy imaginings have their place, such as on an elliptical machine, or watching a movie.  Fantasy can fight boredom.  But if we spend too much time in our fantasies we may begin to try and live them out, which is a disaster.  It is one thing to imagine yourself winning the Olympics in some sport and another thing to exercise your old body as if it were a lot younger and more gifted than it ever was.  The now is real.  It is where we live.  It is where God lives.  God loves the real me.  Only my big ego loves the fantasy me.
