Both the video and the article have some common points to say. Reading and stories do work as an escape from real life and it is a window to a different world. New fictional experiences have the potential to change our lives. Books have the power to motivate us, heal us, make us strong and also change our perspectives towards life. Stories also have the ability to start public dialogue and shape culture. When we share our experiences after reading particular stories or books that becomes a common ground for discussion further. It is then we realise that there are many people like us who are in the similar journey.
