Process of a Thought

In reality, all that exists is thoughts. In reality, thoughts don't exist. In reality, there is no reality. Just thoughts. Confusing, eh? You're telling me! Try being the guy who came up with this nonsense!

So basically, we have the question thought: I wonder...What if? Who? Where? When? How? Most important...Why? Then, you have your hypothesis thought, your self-answering thought. If you come up with a good enough answer, or even if not, it's briefly truth. It becomes your reality for however long you think it's the correct answer. Once you learn a new "correct" answer, that becomes your reality. Basically, we ask, and then we know. There are no in-betweens. Just changes, transitions.

Reality is whatever we perceive. You've probably heard this before...because it's true! Well, at least I perceive it to be true. You could perceive it to be a watermelon-flavored polar bear. That'd make it reality. To you, at least. If you believe something strong enough, it's real to you. Maybe no one else can see or believe it, it doesn't make it any less real. Who are they to infringe upon your reality? They have their own, they should just worry about that.

We see different cultures and say, "oh, why do they do that? Doesn't it bother them?!?!" Of course the answer is "no." It's all they know. It's their life, their reality. They all look at us and think the same thing. They believe what they're doing is the right thing, so it is. Who are we to decide what's right and wrong? We're no one. Who are we to tell people how they should live their lives? Why don't you ask the U.S. Government, I'm sure they have a good reason why they try to control everyone...nevermind.

Anyways, our realities are formed and shaped when we're younger, and become slightly more concrete as we grow. There's still the possibility of some influence changing our lives when we are older, but that depends on how you were raised. If you were raised to be totally stubborn and stick to a few beliefs, then you won't be influenced as easily. If you're raised to be totally, completely open-minded, then your reality will be constantly changing.

I ask you to "think" about this, then "know" whether it's real or not...to you. We all know it's real to me, or at least we think we know. :D
