When you're engrossed in the movie; when the song gets you high; when the book has you screaming through the pages -- for the briefest of moments, you get to drop your identity.
Your personal history is irrelevant. Your broken heart; the money you owe; your deepest insecurity -- they're all gone and non-existent.
Great art lifts us above the self-definitions and outside of the boundaries which rule our everyday lives.
We get to dream. We get to be kids in the front row.
Truth.
