A quote from Neil Gaiman comes to mind: “…because 
a book is a little empathy machine. It puts you inside somebody else’s head. You see out of the world through somebody else’s eyes. It’s very hard to hate people of a certain kind when you’ve just read a book by one of those people.”
Stories. Myths. They are what makes us human. They have great power. That’s why I write. If you’d like to support this writer’s work, please visit me at https://www.patreon.com/lagodzki. (Thanks!)
