YOUR Reality

by Dale Andrews on October 30th, 2009

Never let some­one tell you who you are (or just don’t buy into it). Only you and God know you — and fully know­ing your­self is still in the process. The world has a lot of con men and con women that make a buck induc­ing doubt into what you know you know. Lis­ten for any valid con­tent, but ignore their manipulations.

YOUR real­ity con­sists of your his­tory, your per­spec­tives, and all of your direct expe­ri­ences - as they came into your world. We humans have some over­lap­ping expe­ri­ences, but we each have absolutely unique takes on things. No two peo­ple on this planet (includ­ing iden­ti­cal twins) have exactly the same expe­ri­ences. We can ride the same roller­coaster, but we never have exactly the same sen­sa­tions. We were cre­ated to be a bit sub­jec­tive. After all, God made peo­ple not robots.

Some peo­ple will try to feed you manure and tell you it is choco­late cake. Integrity names things for what they really are. Over­all, look for peo­ple to be out for their own secu­rity - but often at your expense. This is not a plug for para­noia; it is a reminder about the fallen nature of human­ity and the fig leaves of con­trol, power, and sta­tus used to cover humanity’s insecurities.

The most inse­cure work the hard­est to sell their points of view. Some­how, any­thing unreal can be deemed as real if enough peo­ple believe it. How­ever, that is sim­ply mass trance. It has noth­ing to do with actual real­ity. You have the power and right to call it into ques­tion. There is strength is num­bers, but there is also thought­less­ness and a herd men­tal­ity. Smoke is not fire. Merely par­rot­ing the opin­ions of oth­ers can be done with the IQ of a tape recorder.

You know what you know. You know to add valid infor­ma­tion as it comes along. Most of all, you know that you are not expected to have the same total real­ity as any­one else that ever lived or ever will live on this planet.
