The reality that my brother believes and my reality are defiantly different. Reality is cultural. Reality is religious but that could also be considered cultural. Reality if physical. Reality is surreal.
Reality is intellectual but that is in the mind of the beholder.
Reality is for fools like me. I do not believe that we are dreaming or being made the victim of a practical joke by God. For if we were I would hate to think of the type of God that would allow us to inflict such pain on others and ourselves. But since we have free will I believe we exist in a state of reality. Though in our afterlives I believe this will seem like a bad dream.
