THERE IS NOTHING CALLED REALITY

A friend of mine and I were interacting and he said to me “LET'S FACE REALITY” after our discussion I kept pondering over the word “Let’s face reality”, is there anything really called reality? During this meditation I remembered Mark Zuckerberg the founder and CEO of facebook, He had to drop out of school for what he believes in and that is to accomplish his facebook project. Reality may have told him that he cannot accomplish it if he did not complete his university degree, but he became deaf to the reality of other people and faced his own reality today he is one of the world’s most richest and influential man.  My wondering thought did not just stop at him rather it took me to Bill gates the co-founder of Microsoft, his parent’s reality was for him to complete school and become a lawyer, but his own reality was to become a programmer, he decided to honor his own reality which eventually lead him to becoming a house hold name in the world’s economy today. While these thought kept occurring to me it came to my knowledge that there is nothing called reality.
Reality is an individual personal perception, what may seem reality to a person may not be reality to another. For the fact that Mark Zuckerberg dropped out of school yet was successful does not mean that every other person could succeed in likewise manner. That is the reason it is very important for one to do a random assessment of their ability, by so doing such persons would discover their capability and develop them that is when their own reality steps in. If Thomas Edison the inventor of electric bulb had listened to reality he would not had tried invented the electric bulb 1,000 time before he got it right. I am sure many people must have called him a lunatic then but when he got it right everyone decided to go with his own reality. In essence reality is an individual opinion.
