The other day I posted something about what is real and what we perceive as reality. How do we know what is reality for us is reality for someone else? Is my reality the same as say Terry’s reality, or Carrie’s or Jeremy’s? Or are they something different? And if they are something different how do we know what is real in life? How does that line not get blurred in the mix of friends with people and interacting with them daily?
If people have different realities that we perceive and interact in, wouldn’t that mean our own reality gets mixed with theirs and becomes something new? What we perceive is different on a daily basis, or at least it becomes different at some point in our lives, and when that happens how do we know that it is real or not? Who is to say what is real, if what we perceive is real? The way I see things is different from how someone else would view it, would that make what I perceive less real, or what they perceive is less real?
How can we say some people with mental health issues or behavioral health issues have a distorted view of reality? How can do know? What if we are the ones with a distorted view of reality? Or even what if everyone has a distorted view of reality; kinda like a Matrix kind of thing? Then how can anyone really know what reality is and therefore know what is real and what isn’t?
