Escaping to Janet's "happy place"

“Everyone needs a get away; something to relieve themselves”. Escaping to our own personal place is beneficial not only to our own mind and health but the people that surround us. I have recently spoken with a fellow classmate and she too believes that everyone has their own form of mental relief; may it be through a physical median, or in a mental state.
A physical median may be anything that one would use to calm themselves and break away to their own bubble of thought if you will. We share the same median of music but Janet also paints and draws, she believes this to keep her calm; because if she doesn’t not have her own time she is constantly on edge. This is beneficial not only because of having peace at mind, but being at peace with the people who surround you.
One could get into a situation where the people around are bothersome to where one would feel as if their comfort threshold has been reached. I used the example of being trapped on an airplane over seas without any source of media or meditative objects such as paint or a pen and paper. Janet replied that she would close her eyes and just think optimistically, about what she is going to do once she gets into a foreign land. I agree with this a lot because I find myself using the same methods to calm myself down.
I now believe that escaping to a place is a crave to relieve yourself. To have peace at mind or to accomplish something that isn’t necessarily concrete. To achieve putting back all the problems within everyday occurrences and reach your own mental utopia. Whether it be through a physical median or mental state, and Janet helped me explore and believe this thought.
