Illusions?

The night isn't black if you know that it's green.

What do you suppose this means? That reality is only an illusion? That what we choose to believe makes something real? That truth is how we see it? That our feelings define our perception? What do you think?

Did you see my post yesterday on the meaning of life in 700 words (there is a link to the video). It was so interesting because it addresses these questions. It talks about the "mirror mind" the reality we create that is actually an illusion. We chose everything that happens to us. I completely agree with Quantum Theory. Our mind is so powerful and the energy created by our thoughts...creates everything situation in our life.

Also, emotion plays a big part...to me that is where my ego plays. I can get caught up in emotion. I am working on trying to "be" with the situation without reacting to it. That's hard for me.

Very powerful and thought provoking post! Thank you!
