Your friend is your needs answered. Khalil Gibran

 Perception is not reality, since it is subjective, meaning that everyone interprets this world differently based on the experiences that they've had, and the belief system that they've developed.

Only Truth is reality, all else is ignorance, deception, distraction, distortion, limitation, indoctrination and the elaborate mystery, and illusion, that we call 'life'.

~Gavin Nascimento
