Reality
Just some rambelings really. It's my opinion on stuff.

The pesimist tells the dreamer to get real.
The jadded tell the optimists to face reality.

However,

No one really lives in reality
Not in the true reality
Everyone has their own personal reality made up
of their opinions, the way they see and presive
the world and the people in it.

How arrogant we are to think that our way of
being and understanding is the only way.
How cruel some are to try and conform others to
their small and bleak view of life.
They are as far from reality as you can get!

Living in reality is realizing that there is no
such thing as truth.
And that we are all always wrong
Realizing that everyone is doing the best that
they can.
And that good and evil don't exist at all.

Evil is our excuse, and justification. It's
someting we made up to hide from the truth.
The truth that any of us could be what we
despise if curcimstaces had been different.
People learn what they live and do what they know
how to do. The abused abuse.

No one live's in reality.
Everyone's views are twisted so that the people
can beleive they are in the right.
No one ever beleives they are really doing
something wrong.
Rapists don't think they are really raping their
victims
Child molesters believe their victims want it.
Terrorits beleive they are killing for a greater
Good.
It's all justified in their minds.
Their world is made so that they are right
Thats how they see and think

Why would anyone want to face reality?
But sometimes we have to try.
See ourselves as we really are. So that we can
grow and change.
When we know better, we do better.

That is reality.
