Reality is unbelievable

The imagined is vague and undefined. The real is harsh and immediate. The imagined enlarges us and makes us stronger. The real shows us how weak and small we are. We cannot overestimate our ability to deny reality. We do it constantly. We rewrite a fight to make ourselves into the victim. We believe the weak argument we made to defend our lie, simply because we made it. Over time we lose the ability to distinguish the difference between what we want to believe and what is real. We become accustomed to the benefits of the imagined, and lose the desire to question it.
