I feel like our world is full of people desperate to believe in something, something they know isn't real and that can't be made a part of reality, but our society isn't built to facilitate that. Our society is built on the foundation that if you can imagine it, then it should be possible, and if it isn't possible than you should stop imagining it. I'll be the first to admit that the line between fantasy and reality can be thin. I'm also one of those people who believes firmly in the power of stories as a means of helping people cope with a world too messy and complicated to understand. But what happens to a world of people without the tools to write their own stories? And what happens when people insist that every story worth telling has already been written?
