Just As Well

[poliphilo]

Ailz saw someone come out of my mother's bedroom and then go back in again. It wasn't me- and I was the only other person around with the use of their legs.

I never see things myself- and sometimes I feel hard done by- but then I think it's probably just as well because I'm not a particularly well-grounded person and if I could see the fairies I'd be off with them. Like a shot. I get impatient with this funny little box we call reality but there are things that can be experienced inside it that can't be experienced outside and since I've chosen to be here I might as well give it my full attention and make the most of it while I can...

Sometimes we see things. It has happened to me when I have been especially sleep deprived. :)

Would you say these things are "real" or hallucinatory?

[lokbiiviing]

Well, if "reality" is defined as something that exists independently of the experiencer, something that can be shared with others then I would call these incidents definite hallucinations. Or just waking dreams. :)

That's as good a definition of reality as I can think of. :)

There are things we don’t understand about existence. Who’s to say what it was.

We see a very small portion of the total picture- but once in a while we get glimpses of things outside our bubble.
