Everyone has a bad day once in a while, it is important to have an escape from it all.

When I was younger, I would sit at the computer in my parents room with Microsoft word open. I would sit there for hours and type nothing but nonsense. I thought I was writing stories but in reality there wasn't much to them. The "stories" had no exposition, little plot and way too many characters. The sentences were incoherent and grammar was nonexistent in my world; if something appeared in my head it always appeared on the computer screen.

Writing was my way of expressing myself, and it still is today. Whenever I'm nervous or have just had a bad day I sit at a computer and I just write. It takes whatever pain I may have away. It's a form of escapism; it's the same as my brother coming home and siting at his play station for hours on end or my dad screaming at a TV to football players who can't hear him and don't need his opinion.

In an age where everyone is constantly being told they are not good enough and kindness is scarce it is important for everyone to have some form of escape from the harsh world. Without an escape people become tense and angry. Escapes allow people to express themselves. That is important, when your inner self is kept locked up within you, sorrow and misery come out.

My point is, after a long day it is nice to be able to go home and just write about it and it always was concerning to me that some of my friends don't have that one thing that releases the stress. I assume some of them have TV and movies but that is not a reflection of themselves; it is important for someone to be able to express themselves.

Self expression rids the human body of any worry because they are releasing a piece of themselves into the world. So, the next time you are stressed and don't what to do search for comfort in something that your find enjoyment in; it will help wash your worries away.
