Yes... and it also makes a frightfully interesting story, doesn't it?

Aragorn, too, went through a similar journey; but his was more down-to-earth and grim, perhaps. Tuor was aided by the supernatural, back in the misty and magic ages of the First Age; but in the late Third, as Middle-Earth had developed into a more earthly and realistic world, the world in fact of Men, and Aragorn's journey -- while in some ways similar -- was not quite so magical.
