Oh my! Forgot how much I love that movie! Haha
People often fantasize about something taking them away from their misery whether its a person, a drug, or whatever, just something anything that gets them away from their problems.
BUT
That's just fantasy
I'm talking about fantasizing to the point where it takes over your reality.
I fantasize constantly about an underground group/community so sacred, ancient and evil but not ruthless, more so they're only evil when crossed. I have this profoundly weird and almost real belief that one day I will be taken away by them. I know, I sound crazy but this has gone from fantasy to reality.
I live in a very bushy/rain-forest type state and I am a bit of an adventurer and every time I walk through the bushes, this is mostly during the afternoon and nights, I keep thinking someone is going to come out of no where and tell me to go with them to live forever. Like, as if I have to return home. Everywhere I walk, if I am alone, any movement in the shadows, any sound in the distance, I always think I'm being followed by these people. Okay. I sound paranoid but I SWEAR I am normal. I really believe that ONE DAY they will finally approach me and say come home.
And for people who are over psychoanalyzing me. NO. I am not a loner, I have many friends. This is not a need to belong. And NO, I have no mother issue nor daddy issue. I just believe I belong in another society.
Does anyone else fantasize like this or something similar?
i used to have a fantasy of being part of a group of people who were all intelligent and gifted and recognized me as the most skilled of them all, and looked up to me. and we would go on missions together and i would go through hell for the cause of the group, being tortured by the evil people without giving up the secrets. i was kind of like the underappreciated genius, holding them all up through pure skill. sometimes i had magical powers, like being able to drink acid or be shot or have a lot of electricity with no harm, and i imagined myself as being of another magical race, that was put here on earth among the humans, and i was doing my duty to the humans while i was trapped there.
the whole thing seems to be kind of an egotistical thing.
You sound amazing! Who cares whether its an egotistical thing. It's our minds. Our fantasies. And anyways I understand completely. What I didn't mention in the original post is that I become a ruthless leader in that secret society, a mix between Selene from Underworld and Count Dracula (Vlad the Impaler). As I walk through the city I always have 4 huge men with me, following me at all times. I even have moments where my friends and family are confronted by us and I never answer question or speak to them, I just walk past (mind you this is in my fantasy) and I leave them wondering what the hell is going on, and what is this secret life I lead. (I'm not the hero but more so a leader of the pack (probably comes from my obsession for wolves and how they roam in packs))
I wish that if we thought about it hard enough, that it would be real.........one can only wish....sigh
I think sometimes we are unappreciated geniuses in our own sense.
