Can We live in imaginary world ?

Should man always live in reality ? If a deed or person is not obtained in reality should he forget that and carry on with his own life ? or try till the end of his life till he obtains it and if required sacrifice his life at last to achieve the deed or just end up in frustration .. But not many wishes can be seen in reality ..Reality bites ...Man has his own limitation . In the race against time , he cannot wait for things to happen rather he is forced to accept what he has got and march forward ..

For example in India with high academic pressure, children are forced to spend time with books for most part of the day , and they miss their childhood enjoyment . Such people can take back themselves to childhood days in the imaginary world and script those days the way I liked. Worse is the case of people with poor economic background, they spend their day doing menial labor without proper education . If these people cannot live a joyful life in reality then what's wrong in Enjoying their desired life in their imaginary life

Now is living a happy life in imaginary world a waste of time ? I am one person in real world and some other person in imaginary world . There is large deviation between the real self devoid of ideal characteristics and imaginary character with full of desired virtues by a particular person .Imagining a self what we are not to be in reality may or may not be considered waste of time .People who feel life is short and is full of activities that we achieve in reality consider it waste of time . To them they must see and have things to believe them . For others it is not always possible to have things in reality , they imagine them ,and experience it. There is yet another case of people in latter category who enjoy feeling things in imaginary world because they cannot accept the defeat in this hard found reality . The want to achieve in the real world ,fail to do it for various reasons and console themselves by having them in their imaginary life and in dreams .

Now the arguments boils down to one single question ? what's life ? Is it the experience we achieve by thoughts or the experience we achieve by deeds ? Can anyone answer this question …
