We are the only animals we know of that can disappear into other worlds within our minds. I’m always amazed when I return back to reality after pulling out of a good book or an engrossing game or enthralling film. We can enter these other worlds proactively as well, through daydreams and creative writing and illustration. How lucky we are to have the ability to enter these alternate dimensions. Even such a simple thing can become precious, if viewing the world with gratitude.
