Thinking about topics like this always inevitably frustrates me. There is no answer to questions like that. I'm a person that likes to have definite, indisputable answers to questions, so when philospohical discussions like this come up I always end up feeling meager and meek because I can't come to a conclusion. It is intriguing to think about things like this though. More than a few times, I've wondered if life is just like a "Truman Show" type thing where everybody's in on the joke except me. I've wondered what if this life IS heaven/hell or a dream and we just don't have the perspective to realize it. Who's to say that our understanding of reality is "how it is?" There are too many other perspectives that could be "the real reality." Insects, namely bees see in an ultraviolet color spectrum, therefore yellow (a lot of flowers) is red to them (a color that indicates pollen & they're attracted to) and the blue sky is purple to them. Who's to say that the way they see things isn't the real way and the way we do is? I don't know, like I said, there's no answers to this stuff and I hate that. I'm kinda like Kill in regards to having already pondered all this stuff and coming to the conclusion it's best to just let it go. Live life don't worry about trying to figure out all the secrets of the world. Just live life.
