Sometimes we need fantasy to survive the reality

We all love to live in the world of fantasy since our childhood. Remember the fairy tales which our grandmother used to tell us at bed time would always come into our dreams and we would be like prince or princesses in the fairy tale and we always wanted to believe that a frog will become a real prince one day or a bird will become a beautiful princess one day.
Reality is really bitter every person has its own painful story majority of people are under depression and I think unless they try to make themselves happy nobody Tries to make them so I think it’s better to live in fantasy to achieve those which was not achieved in life. fantasy and imagination are good remedy of daily pain and second imagination helps us to explore the word.
You know, that guy from US, who had made a bunker with 3 years worth of food under his house? He used to believe that zombie apocalypse might happen and that Democrats want to take away his guns. You know that a woman from NYC who goes to martial arts classes everyday? She believes that every man who looks at her wants to rape her. You know that couple from a city who do some black magic in their backyard? They believed that some sort of funny crystals have healing powers and some people have some magical, colorful energy waves through which they can predict future.
Many people believe, or convince themselves that they do, all sorts of things. That there is hell and heaven in some after life, where you will get roasted and you have to sleep on bed of nails in the hell or if you do good deeds you will go to heavens where there will be all the beautiful scenery of lovely fairies flying with their magic wands and pink unicorns coming down from the clouds. Some people believe that God or Gods are watching them all the time, that if they do bad karma and/or sins, they will be sent to hell to suffer after life. That there are haunted houses with ghosts, demons, poltergeists and UFOs, and so on.
The point is, we, humans, need to believe things to survive in this world. We make things up all the time. And so do you, don't you? Who are you to tell others what is real and what is not? We like to live in fantasy world to escape from the hard and harsh realities of real life.
Face it: the real world sucks, and you know what needs to be done to make it right. Hint: it’s killing millions of people you don’t like. And for sure, there is a lot of things to gain in the so-called real world. They can mostly be gained by taking them away from other people. And also for sure, there is a lot of pleasures to experience in the so-called real world. The ones you want involve hurting other people. Are you really sure you want us all to “live” in the so-called real world? We don’t, because we have conscience and don’t want to hurt others on this scale.
Let the sleeping dogs lie. At least, until you’ve got a good plan about making this world a better place, but if you want to give something else a try, go ahead and call on people to abandon their fantasies and work on the real world. Real world can be stressful demanding and also asks you to make tough choices. Fantasies are where you can shape your fate as you like in a matter of seconds. Doing it in reality takes lot of time hard work and even then the expected outcome is not 100% guaranteed. So it's nice to make up situations in the mind where we win, always no matter the odds and irrespective of consequences.
There are many reasons why probably the simplest one is they can afford to do it what do you think that probably close to half of the world is and not too good a shape with a good source of water and or food and government could care less and anybody with that kind of money they'd rather see him die they're not needed you know we can build a robot cheaper than hiring those people we don't have to have any insurance form either let's just let him die.
I have read a lot of fantasy books, and over time I have made my perfect character, if I say perfect, I mean that the character isn’t perfect in the least bit. my character seems amazing at first, she can do everything and is powerful. also she never seems to be afraid about anything. but that is because she has been through much worse. my character always has some sort of trauma, because those people interest me, and I like to place myself in their shoes. In my fantasy world I go on adventures and it just feels great to have the feeling you have achieved something, even if it’s just in your fantasy.
It could be their own fault or due to circumstances beyond their control. After a while, some people feel it is just less painful or more enjoyable to lapse off into a fantasy world where things exist just as they wish they would be. In some respects, an approach like this may lengthen your life and make it a better place. Sometimes reality just sucks and we want to run away from realities of life. Life is a stupendously horrifying experience. And an escape from it is very freeing, you don’t have to worry about taxes, or collage or getting married or you sick pet, when you are “in” another world. Where all those worries are forgotten. People need breaks from reality.
All this fantasy world is shown in Bollywood movies and it is here that a common man on the road forgets all his real worries and enjoys being in the fantasy at least for the 3 hours for which he had paid his hard earned money to buy tickets to see all those nonsensical songs and dance sequences of the hero and the heroines but all that sells because all of us want to have some fun being in the fantasy land.
