Is Fantasy better than Reality?

Fantasy is its own world, it’s where you can escape your thoughts and just imagine how you want them to be. In the world of fantasy can believe in anything you want, and fairy tales do come true. But in all truth reality is the real world or better yet; life. With reality comes sadness, happiness, strength, weakness, and the world doesn’t care how you handle it. The real world is harsh and can bring you down to your weakest points. Reality is the emotional rollercoaster of growing up. Both worlds contrast each other greatly, and show a side of what people hope and dream vs. what people get and try to get out of. In the novel the Secret life of bees, Lilly Owens sometimes put herself in the fantasy world, when she would think about what her and her mom would be done now, or when she was thinking about Zach and if he shared the same feelings as her about him. But she also was faced with many challenges in life with dealing with T.Ray and running away from home to find the answers about her mother. They caused her to change in all reality by having her grow up and learn. Reality doesn’t have to be negative its all how you handle it, but most people would take the easy route by dreaming or wishing about it rather than trying to experience it and face the reality of situation. I believe that fantasy is easier to face, but many people get caught up in that world too much and don’t want to face reality. They want to stay in their own world where all their impossible dreams come true. In order to learn you must learn the difference between fantasy and reality and know that they one world can never come true and the other is something you have to deal with no matter what life throws at you.
