I can do you no better service than quoting from Tolkien's Tree and Leaf

Actually, there is probably quite a lot that one could use on this topic in
Tree and Leaf.
Leaf by Niggle also continues in a similar vein, although it's an illustration of the point through the use of a story.
I tend to use it as an escape, a way to get away from my life or the problems of the world around me (and don't I need that lately!) The prisoner escaping from his cell that Tolkien talked about fits well with my view of fantasy (and some other things that I do).
