I sometimes wonder what it’s be like to be a dog or cat when I see them.

I always thought dreams were my alternate lives in the multiverse. That's how I look at it anyway

I sometimes find my daydreaming self inserting myself into works of fiction - such a Sherlock Holmes, the Vorkosiverse etc. Probably a symptom of deep psychosis.

Looking at houses in locations I'd love to live in but can't afford is a real one. Also, I was deeply fantasising about moving to NYC when I travelled there a couple of years back, asking people I met there about their experience in moving, even though I knew deep down that I'd never do it. It's nice to dream!

I've definitely planned out what to do with large lotto wins I will never have. Looked at moving overseas or interstate. I've considered moving into a unit right in the centre of Melbourne so I can enjoy all the activities there, or moving to a big block of land in the middle of nowhere and fixing up a rundown place.

I think it is a healthy thing to do, as long as you are not doing it with rose-coloured glasses and making yourself unhappy with your current circumstances. If you are doing it realistically it often ends up highlighting things that are important to you - things you would miss if you made different choices, and sometimes things you really want that you are actually able to do now.
