Does make-belief fuel our creative thinking or does it encourage escapism from real world challenges?

Anish Asokan @RevivedWarrior (3853) • India 8 Dec 24

As a child, most of us had fun with make-beliefs. We were superheroes in our imaginative worlds or a champion in an alternate universe. It was fun back then and made many mundane times better, especially when we had to kill time...

Shavkat @Shavkat (141906) • Philippines 27 Oct 24

When are you brave?

Shavkat @Shavkat (141906) • Philippines 18 Apr 24

I am brave if it is needed. The bravest thing that I always do is face the challenges in life. Some people cannot do this because it is their real-life character. It triggers when bad things happen, and it needs to activate it. I...

The Big Day

Jim Bauer @porwest (112717) • United States 7 Jan 23
