What is a comfort Zone? It’s that warm feeling you get when you can finally come home after a long day of too much stress and not enough play. It’s that rush of relief knowing you could finally let go of the harsh world and just melt into your blankets and stop thinking for a moment. They’re the essential part of human function an escape, a place of no judgment and no lies or insecurities. Comfort zones could be anything that helps you enter a state of calm security. It could be a time of reflection where you can sit alone and think about your day process everything that happened with a clear mind. For example, a comfort space for me has always been under blankets. There is a sense of peace being surrounded by a soft cover shrouding myself in complete darkness and shutting out any outside forces. During this time I let my mind wander in this space I can think about anything and everything, under blankets we hide from demons and monsters that may lurk under our beds from the demons tapping on our windows at night to the shadow creature peering at you from the closet. I hide from the stress and responsibility, it’s a comfort knowing nothing can get you while you hide from view.
I really enjoy reading your work. I love the idea of how you put your own story and view into this. I think the part when you described hiding from the stress and responsibility really let me relate to you more. I really enjoyed it.
I really like this. You took the prompt in an entirely different direction than I would have, but you did something really cool with it. You give a really interesting outlook on comfort zones.
I love how almost poetic your interpretation of comfort zones is. I’m that most if not all of us can relate to that safety we feel under the covers, how serene and peaceful it is to be where you’re most familiar. Comfort zones really seem to take on this sort of personification of something more tangible than some imaginary place in our heads we give a different name to. It makes comfort zones less mental and more physical, and I really liked it.
