In Wicked, Glinda sings that Elphaba is having delusions of grandeur. Okay, so others use the term as well, but that’s my personal thought trigger for this.
Sometimes, I have delusions of mediocrity. Now, after Googling the phrase, I feel the need to explain that I am not referring to the game that apparently exists. I’m referring to delusional thoughts I entertain, if even just for a moment, of what I imagine could be. And when I stop to think about the actual content of these thoughts, I realize they really are quite mediocre. Maybe it’s a merging of my whimsical side with the realist in me. Whatever the case, I’m just glad that I don’t always get what I (think I) want and that life often turns out so different from what I anticipate.
