My Free Write Friday offering based on the prompt from Kellie at;
http://kellieelmore.com/2013/01/25/fwf-free-write-friday-seven-doors/
Given a choice to unlock a mystical door to a far off kingdom where magic was power,animals talked and no one grew old, would you open it?
LET me THINK...
If I had a choice of 7 places to be transported to, I'd probably lock the door and forget about the whole thing...
Forget magic and talking animals, I clearly treasure my comforts...
Hot water, a washroom where there's a flush involved, THE INTERNET!!!, and how could I ever forget Facebook?!!? People would wonder and ponder of my whereabouts... LOL
But If I were to be serious and I had to pick between seven doors leading to seven places;
Narnia Neverland Wonderland Hogwarts Camelot Middle Earth Westeros
I would probably pick the door leading to Narnia, clearly there would be much to learn from such an experience. Let me tell you why the other 6 didn't make the cut. Hogwarts; Although the thought of an adventure sounds ridiculously tempting, I would actually have to do some sort of magic to survive. A muggle in Hogwarts? They would probably make me forget everything anyway. And without magic, I'd probably end up being eaten by a tree. Westeros, is a place I have no knowledge of and I wouldn't travel to a place I have absolutely no clue about. Ignorance is blissful only when you're in civilization.
Middle Earth is quite an enticing choice but clearly not in the middle of a war. There is bound to be another one sooner or later. Meeting Merlin and taking a look around Camelot, that would have been an amazing opportunity. But I'd rather be educated in some sort of defensive arts before undertaking such a journey where I would need to know how to wield some kind of weapon in order to survive.
Wonderland? No way!!! There's way too many people with mental disorders up there. You've got a mad hatter, a crazy rabbit, a mouse in need of anger management, a queen with a love of heads or the lack thereof... It would be entertaining but yet again I might end up headless. To be in Neverland, is to be young forever. To fly around and bug a grown man with a hook and a crocodile thrown into the mix of it. Hmmmm.... I would rather watch an episode of American Idol at home, I'm sure I would love the drama between Nicki and Mariah wayyy better... Why Narnia?? Simply because there would be much to see, much to imagine and much adventures to have... Plus, I might arrive there and be crowned a King...
