Something about reality and perception

Hmmm. Try pondering this for a while!

Reality is what we take to be true. What we take to be true is what we believe. What we believe is based upon our perceptions. What we perceive depends upon what we look for. What we look for depends upon what we think. What we think depends upon what we perceive. What we perceive determines what we believe. What we believe determines what we take to be true. what we take to be true is our reality.

-- Gary Zukav

Maybe this is why we need community. We're trapped in an endless circle unless someone interrupts that in some way. Everyone has a blind spot. By definition, we cannot see our own blind spots. Yes, we need each other!
