What is reality?

The definition of reality is, from the American Heritage Dictionary, is a four-part definition:
1. The quality or state of being actual or true.
2. One, such as a person, an entity, or an event, that is actual.
3. The totality of all things possessing actuality, existence, or essence.
4. That which exists objectively and in fact.

But what really is reality?

Reality is the single mother raising her two , trying to stay ahead of the mounting pile of bills. Her reason for being is to see the joy, and happiness of her two every day of their lives.

Reality is the Vietnam War Veteran who has lost everything in his life. No home, no shelter, forced to beg on the streets and sleep wherever it’s warm and dry.

Reality is the daily struggle for people to be accepted in this world on what is in their hearts, no by how the dress, their ethnicity, or their theological beliefs.

Reality is the people who have lost their jobs in a tough economic crisis. They do not know if they will work again, or find as good a job as they once had.

Reality is an unstable person who brings a gun to a mall, a club, or school. Not realizing the pain that they cause now will cause even greater pain in the future.

Reality is the starving people in the world, with no food to eat. While many people just throw away the stuff that they do not want to eat.

Reality is madman who targets defenseless victims, terrorizing them until the fear overcomes them.

Reality is the shy schoolboy who has a crush on the cutest girl in the school. He is afraid to tell her his true feelings because he does not want to get hurt and made fun of.

Reality is the inner city youth who has big dreams of making it big in life. She wants to get out of her current situation and make a difference in the world.

Reality is the father of four, having an affair with his office co-worker. His wife doesn’t know, and won’t know for sometime.

Reality is not fiction; it’s a fact of life…everyday, everywhere.


Not that anyone is gonna read this or post comments about it, but what the hell. I'm posting this anyways.

Reality is people who turn their animals loose to fend for themselves
You seem to not realize that some of those vets dont try to find themselves a home or try to find help which they could easily do.
They just want to get money for beer and cigs so they stand on corners and some of them have more money than anbody who is actually working for a living and they dont pay taxes on what they get.
