Stefan MolyneuxI don't think it is a good mental health practice to fantasize that you know the infinite thoughts of imaginary entities.
About This Quote
We all love to daydream and imagine how life would be if we were someone else. For example, I have a friend who is always thinking of how nice it would be to have 10 children. She has two now, so she must be thinking about what it will be like with 10. This is not healthy or wise.
We should not fantasize about being famous or having money. We should not expect to have our every wish granted. What would be the point? Do you really need 10 children? Do you really want them?
