    Reality

    DateWednesday, June 16, 2010 at 5:45 AM

    "Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one."
      -- Albert Einstein

    Cute saying. Full of crap. Reality is no illusion. No tongue twister, new age movement, or 'hope' is going to change it. Reality is here... now... and it's in your face.

    So whatcha gonna do about it?

    You say, "Hey, relax. What's the big deal?"

    I say, "EVERYTHING!"

    We absolutely MUST embrace reality... if we ever plan on changing it. We have no options but to look our existence right in the face and deal with it. You are here today. Your life is what it is now! You may WISH it was different. You may HOPE it changes. But it is... what it is.

    So - if it needs to change... and you hope for something different... I'll ask you again, "Whatcha gonna do about it?" 

    Any HABITS need to be added or subtracted? Attitudes? Actions? Friends? Places? People? Jobs? Choices?

    Well...

    Well, Barry, what you say is true--but don't fight with Einstein, that's not what he was saying, either. You've made him a "straw man".
