We have a strong tendency to believe in fantasy. We deeply cherish them, as though the worst fate that can befall us is the destruction of our fantasies and dreams. Our fantasies are too close to part with. Anything, any stories or beliefs that supports our fantasies immediately attracts us. We would rather choose death and suffering over renouncing our deeply cherished fantasies.
The prospect of facing reality as is, without any fantasies, is simply too terrifying.
