Correct Wording

Post by Trapped »

Is there a psychological term for a mental escape or place/state you'd rather be, or something that mimicks what you want-like your life is completely opposite of say a song that you like right now; but you present your life in terms of that songIs there a noun that coinsides with mordant?



So what's the right time for a (psychological) mask? A persona (according to Carl Jung)? Or is it the Action-Reaction defense mechanism?
It's the little things that make a big difference.



In case you hadn't noticed...4-letter words:



love - hate - true - life



"And there are voices

That want to be heard

So much to mention

But you can't find the words"

I can't erase myself, but I can try to move on.

Maybe the word "utopia". Because a utopia is an unreachable place that is perfect in every way, so maybe it's like your personal utopia?



Just a thought. :)

Romans 5:8 "God demonstrates His own love toward us in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."



"If you judge people, you have no time to love them." Mother Theresa



"A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty." Sir Winston Churchill
