When Reality and Illusions Collide
Many times in our lives, our senses are deceived. In fact, they are tricked almost daily, and we don't really consider that to be the case. When we watch movies, we are drawn in to the story and the setting and can almost feel ourselves there and a part of the action. On hot days, we can see things that aren't there. Mirages. But what would you do if the thing right in front of you turned out to be only an illusion? What if most of your life was an illusion? What if everything else was real, but it was you, in actuality, that was the illusion?
Book Excerpt
Lines of Force: The Weekend Adventures of Andrew Barton
When we expect something, our minds can convince us that we have achieved it even if, in reality, that is not the case. The reverse can also be true. If someone blindfolded you and put a piece of chocolate in your mouth, it would take you some time to figure out what it is, especially if you’ve been told that it was something different. What I’m saying is that our senses can be deceived and our minds can play along. It becomes difficult to discern what is reality and what is not even when reality is staring you right in the face and laughing at you.~ Andrew Barton
