“Suspension of disbelief” is a term that means you need to let go of your logic and reason to truly enjoy something. Usually it’s associated with theater or films, but there are times when letting go of your strict rationality will help you accept some strange things in life. There will be times when you see something that’s so ridiculous, you have to assume it’s a fake. That may be your natural reaction, but you should learn to embrace the fact that the world is an extremely weird place. Every day can take you by surprise.
