We all want another world, a fictional world right?
Fiction leads us to a journey, to places, in different time periods, with various characters. All these give us an escape route! Some days back, I was watching a video about writing a fiction, that, how can one engage people through fiction writing. I suddenly realised, reading a fiction is so basic thing for so many reasons! One should ask that, why should we read fiction or watch! Simply, what is the reason that we love fiction so much?
Some reasons are:
* It gives us a different world where one can understand every details of the happenings.
* Help improving imagination through this abstract world and it will start playing with our senses. We started to feel and realise deeply.
* Fiction is a beautiful illumination, isn't it? Sometimes we all place ourselves with the character and started to think about the situation that, 'would I do the same?'. Through questioning slowly somehow we begin to understand ourselves too.
* Also, it teaches us to become patient and make us to keep up the flow which the author has created.
* For me this is the most important. Fiction gives us many ways to think. Helps to create own world. I believe this is also a very needed thing, the art of thinking. If you talk with a kid you will see he or she talks about so many imaginary characters, thoughts, places and more. Why? Because the magic of fiction. Children are used to read fiction and that helps them engage their mind and thought process.
In this chaos of our daily lives fiction helps us to jump into a world of a mundane beauty excluding our very own realism.
