Simplified Meaning:
Creating imaginary worlds helps us cope with the real world, rather than running away from it. For instance, when a child goes through tough times at home, they might imagine themselves as a superhero in an exciting world. This helps them handle their real-life problems better. Similarly, adults might read books, watch movies, or play video games after a stressful day at work. This fantasy allows them to relax and recharge so they can face their challenges. In this way, fantasy acts as a tool to manage stress and make reality more bearable. It provides a mental break, helping people stay grounded rather than overwhelmed.
