Hi, We do create our own reality. It is called making choices. Our choices determine what we become in life, whether or not we are content, what we think of ourselves and what others think of us. It is not New Age as it has always been that way.

Personally, I think that most of reality is based on our physiological ability to perceive. For instance, a color blind person cannot see a fine piece of painted art as a person with normal sight but they can still perceive, albeit with different wave lengths of light. The same with music. How many people cannot tell when a bad chord is struck? Tone deaf people may not be able to tell a bad chord but they still heard the same wave lengths of sound. Physics dictates all reality. Who you are determines how you perceive it. Can you change that reality? Wonderful things are being done to make the blind see and the deaf hear. Who knows what you can do for yourself with a little determination. Nothing but love to you.

The anti- realist can no more prove their position than the realists, but the normal understanding that exists among people, language, presupposes reality every time it is spoke. I do not see the anti- realists coming up with a normal understanding that supports their position.

what the saying means, is often its how you veiw things, that defines them,,,, and hence your reality,,you can approach problems head on, and try to resolve or dissolve them, or you can sit and feel your life is overwhelmed by problems,,, is one example, another is,,,,
for instance, i have a job, i like my job, the hours, i feel i am adequatly paid for the job i do, my reality is that i have a good job thats well suited to me
your view, might be that i work odd hours,,,, my schedule and location change constantly,, any job that required one to go to work at 1 am somedays, or 4 pm others, or be off days at a time, then work day and night for days at a time,,, your sense of reality concerning my job might be that it is a bad one,,,,, also your reality if you had my particular job,,, might be that it was a bad one, or just an ok one,,,,,,, so while the job itself remained the same,,,,,our views of it would be the reality of it , for us ,

I don't believe in reality, my brother is an only child, and I but an invisible friend. Course you knew there was no reality or you wouldn't be looking for it.

Be sure, that you created and live in reality in which you do not believe...That how it looks like, open your eyes.

Only new age pseudoscientists and yoga instructors endorse this lopsided idealism.
