Reality.

Its different to all of us, those who believe certain things, who see situations differently, how our mind basically works, and how we have been brought up. Reality can be tough, some choose to believe certain things…. Parents (as we all know), lead there children to believe in “Santa” the “Easter bunny” the “tooth fairy”… all while we are growing up! But why? So reality can seem better? A magical place? A mysterious place, where great things happen? Or so were not so disappointed with life?

Well I know as we get older we all seem to get disappointed with reality, we have different experiences, ways of living, that all seem to happen differently. Reality can shock some, for others it just sucks and it can be an enduring process. Weather if its figuring out if “Santa” is real or not, or simply working out that school was only leading up to one thing; work, and if you don't work, you study even more. figuring out that life is a simple routine . I guess we all have to make reality seem great, for life to actually seem great. Cause without the reality of life, I guess life cannot be what life is like for us. But is life reality? Well life is and isn't reality, it has its ups and downs, we all pretend every now and then, we cry, we laugh, have our good and bad weeks or days, but we are all here, facing as what we know is life and reality each and everyday. Reality can face us in the most un-natural ways, we could wake up one morning and our whole perspective on something can change, we might not laugh at the things we used to, enjoy what we once loved, or cry at the things we cried for. My reality right now is going to school, working 3 shifts a week, going to church and youth, and occasionally catching up with a friend here and there. It has ups and downs, I'm sure everyones life does. Sometimes I think I’m “un-greatful” for my life, and the reality i face. I know a lot of the time we seem to want more. More of what we know other people have, or hear something and all of a sudden we might want that one "thing" too. What we see all around us effects our being and who we are, and what we act like. I know life will have its ups and downs, we will face sadness and grief, happiness and joy, peace and love, anger and hurt. In life we face reality. I guess we have to enjoy the adventure we have, because our adventure, is our reality and our reality is our life.
