In the book Harry Potter and the Philosipher’s Stone by J.K Rowling, I learned that many humans get this sense of wonder from things that they can’t explain. When reading this book there is a sense of awe at the magic and amazing possibilities at Hogwarts . Multiple times in the book Harry says that he loves magic and I believe that this is because it opens so many new doors to him. Harry loves Hogwarts and it is like a second home to him where he fits in. All of this just contributes to the fact that us humans want to believe in things that may not be real because it gives us a sense of hope and opens our minds to new and creative possibilities.
