is one thing that learning a Foreign language could provide. If I had not learn English and read books written in English, my thought about me and my surrounding s would've been very different from what I have now.

What kind of different perspectives do I have now? It's a bit similar to the fact that the view on the overseas countries from here in Korea is not like what I see and feel my surroundings in Korea. The foreign cultures, people and economic situation seem like a kind of fairy tale. People living in overseas countries seem like protagonists in their own novels, having their own characters, adversities and very deep and long stories or histories.

If I saw from overseas someone exactly like myself in Korea, I would feel the similar things written above. I am living in a fairy tale, playing my role in a vast novel(s), creating and repeating my character(s).

This makes me more free. And I hope everyone learning English would feel the same.
