So today is National Escape Day , and I would like to tell u something which excites me the most whenever this word comes in my mind 'escapism' . Mainly this word comes to my mind when I have a lot of stuffs to do , but due to lack time sometimes i procrastinate. We all sometimes want to get escaped from this world because we all are just rushing toward future , living in this world of cut throat competition we all forgot to live our life. in class 12 we had a chapter named 'third level' which is also based on this word escapism. 

The story, ‘The Third Level’ clearly explores the science fiction genre of ‘time travel’. Jack Finney, the recipient of the World Fantasy Award, interweaves fantasy with reality in his projection of time travel. Charley, the protagonist wishes to be transported to the third level, the world of Galesburg, Illinois, 1894, which is supposed to be a much happier and quieter place to be in. The story also dwells on the theme of escapism as a psychological refuge from the grim realities of the present day world along with a desire to stay with the past—a desire that Charley’s wife Louisa does not contest. Sam has also happily escaped, with no desire to return to his old profession .The story exposes the vulnerable side of the common man. Surrounded by myriad problems, we humans, sometimes experience a craving for peace and serenity, and look for possible escapes. This story is about time intersection, an illusion, a kind of long dream that we do not experience during our sleep.

In the end i just only want to say that don't escape from the situation just try to bear it and then only you will be more stronger .

Thanks for reading 

warm regards
