“ Like simple minded goldfish, we often believe the boundaries of our bowl to be the entire ocean. ”
The strange paradox of science is that it does not explain reality, it explains our fantasy. It is a beautiful thing.
~ Laren Grey Umphlett
Reality is non-directional, layered, and potential- all things at once and non-real in the sense that real is an unknown, so real is undefined and can not be experienced. Only your experience can be experienced, and that does not encompass everything or anything.
There is a major difference between a scuba diver and a drowning man. One is in control of his experiences, the other is in over his head.
