Watching The World Go By
You know how in some TV shows and movies they have the character you're following stop and stand in the middle of a crowd of people and the world rushes around them? How about when the perfectly picked song pops up at just the right moment setting the mood to a love scene or a fight scene? I don't think I ever really wish my life was movie-esque but sometimes I wish things that happened cinematically would happen in real life.
Imagine for a moment, you've met the man of your dreams and you're lining up for that first kiss, but what you don't know is that he's a total douche and you should be running...if your life had a soundtrack to it you wouldn't here that romantic music blossoming, it'd be some kind of forewarning song that tells of his bad boyness... cue Taio Cruz. Or maybe you're in just the mood to kick someone's trash and as you're walking purposefully down the street to meet this person the perfect, mood setting, fight song with the heavy bass and awesome lyrics just speeds you along...Watch Your Back!
Or we could always go with the lighter side of things musically, perhaps you're having the best moment of your life and suddenly the music swells expressing that Perfect Day to everyone near and far.. Perhaps you're just about to push out your first child and amidst the dead silence as you're about to see your baby's beautiful or handsome face for the first time and waves of music rise in the room, as you think...dear baby, I'll Look After You!
Or perhaps you're walking through part of your life in a daze because something has knocked you so off balance that your world just seems to be moving faster than you can keep up and so you just stop and stare around you in a surreal moment watching this particular moment in your life shoot into fast forward. (For some reason I can NOT seem to find a good example of this on Youtube or I would share).
Perhaps I've seen too many Hollywood productions and maybe I need to start reading more books again...but I swear sometimes things in life would be SO much cooler if our imaginary camera panned the room seeing all the very boring same old people there and just slid past that oh so hot prince charming only to slowly move back in time to see him walking towards you. Whatever reason these things have decided to invade my brain, I love the thought of walking through a crowded room, lost so deep in my own thoughts that as I stare around me the world begins to go by in fast forward, just long enough for my thoughts to catch up and then the world slows back down again as I figure out whatever it was that was so desperately important.
