As an individual,you can consider as true what you believe in. As a member of a society,you don't have that choice. There are things that have been deliberately considered as true - laws,rules and all that - and you must accept them,if you want to belong to the community. Then there's the natural concept of truth,concerning everything that physically surrounds us: if you can sense it,it's true - at least,that's what the society says (the same old society that requires me to believe that what they say is true). But,yes,we do create our own reality - proof? Wars,arguments...you know what they are? Each one's reality colliding.

if I don't believe that something is True, do I think it is? If I don't think it is not true, then it is not. I am a level headed person, and stubborn too. I do not create any Reality.

hmm.. well, i guess there are standards to ascertain if one is true or not. if something exists or not. some standards work, some sucks. some are logical, some are beyond the point. sometimes things are judged on it objective sense.
we can create our own reality, that's one thing we're born with -- freedom. but in the end, we should learn to know and accept that, dogs cant basically fly.

there things that are explainable, thats why we have science,
the creating your own reality is something like religion, what u think about yourself, sports.
now back to the real answer.
we can create our own reality, however it depends on your will cuz people are getting affected by your desire..
let say u want money, u get alot of money, someone has to be poor.

Not for YOU, of course, but everyone has their own realities and acts upon what they believe to be true. That's why paranoid schizophrenics can be pretty dicey patients for psychologists, because even though they're there to help the patient, the patient can involve the psychologist in their paranoia, because they tell them alot... hmmmm Paranoia intervenes and the Dr is "one of 'them'.."

It depends on what the subject is. For example you may not believe I am a girl. That doesn't give me a penis. It just means that youbelieve I have one. On the other hand, if you don't believe in gravity, and you walk off the roof, there's a good chance that no matter howstrong your will is you will fall.

Truth is independent of belief. You are free to believe anything that you desire, but that does not make anything true. You are free to create your own fantasy.

Reality and my personal beliefs can conflict sometimes. But fire and water not mixing, only guarentee in life is death and taxes; these are facts and real world situations.

The funny thing about truth, is that its true wether you believe it or not. If you believe that the wind isn't real, does it stop blowing?

If you don't believe in Ghosts will you spend a night in a haunted mansion?
