An Emotional Reality

I used to think that reality was physical, in the sense that it could be quantified, measured, observed, touched, tasted, smelt, seen, and heard, but I feel differently now. Reality is observed emotionally and processed as such; fact is an illusion. That's right.
There are underlying meanings to every emotion you have, think you have, and think you might of thought you had. Does psychosis and paranoia only exist because the physical reality is changing or because you are responding to your and others emotions differently?
Even dreams, in there most realistic, physical sense, are nothing more than a manifestation of emotion. Emotional response dictates you own actions, consequently affecting the reality you perceive.
-------------------- So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness." So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.

We all begin building our own cages in hell when we take our first breath at birth.
Realizing our failings/failures and forgiving ourselves and others is the only way to be free of our own personalized hell.
Sad but true.

Satisfaction is the death of knowledge, which is ignorance
I will never claim perfection but i will forgive myself.

I disagree. Having known Veritas children I now believe it doesn't have to be hell. Her boys are filled with play, love and laughter. They deal with the disappointments of life better than most adults I have met and are more mature at 7 and 14 then most people ever get.
Amazing job Veritas.

We are all good people to start with. She had a better childhood than most but had to overcome a lot of negative programs like the rest of us. The fact is that for the most part she did it. I don't know why she was able to do it so well as I have never met anyone quite so successful but she did. She uses Rational Emotive Behavior in her child rearing and I believe that is the main reason for her success with her children and herself.
