Today, I want to run, run away from every single worry. Where do I want to run to? An Island, any quiet, idyllic Island. Then, I start thinking about the weather that is hitting Islands and I start wondering...what are the odds that I get to that Island and either a hurricane or typhoon or tsunami hits it?! I know, I know, aren't I just a bundle of joy? I should have visions of lovely beaches, cool Island breezes, icy umbrella adorned beverages and zero cares. Wouldn't that be marvellous? Anyone want to run away to an Island with me? Brave any potential natural disasters? I don't know how we would get there...but would you like to join me? Lol, just musing! Have a blessed and happy weekend all! Photo: Pixabay

I think you need to figure out how were going to get there because if I have to swim I ain't gonna make it, plus I could be eaten by a shark.

@bluesa Let's make the boat out of steel just in case there are sharks.

I wouldn't make it if I had to swim either . Oh, there wouldn't be sharks around the island . Maybe we can build a boat!

No no shark is not going to eaten you as it doesn't want to taste the untastetier thing.

I would love to join you on this no worry, carefree island. Does the island have Internet?

@bluesa We'll just need to make certain it does. My carefree vacation or life on the island wouldn't be carefree without the Internet.

I did that often, running away to my own world by reading a book from one of my favorite authors! I often ended up in either Egypt, the Bahamas, or wherever it was for a few hours... then happily, I would return to my world, refreshed .

A book can be a good escape. At the moment my worries are bigger than just escaping into a book though. Oh, Yes, I could imagine sitting looking at the pyramids.

@YrNemo yes, it is true. Worries make it very difficult to focus on anything else. Sorry you are experiencing that too.

@bluesa It is true isn't it, when we are worried about something, the mind can't focus in any prints. I noticed that tendency more and more recently.

@bluesa we have beautiful beaches here in the Philippines. The weather has stabilized. Just saw in the news, there is storm coming in the northern part of the country. Hoping and praying it is not as destructive as the other.

I'm in! I would love to run away with you to an island. And I have a solution to the bad weather problem. All we have to do is a find a bottle on the beach with a Genie in it and she'll make sure there are no storms or tidal waves. It's easy!
