Is reality real or imagined and how does your opinion of that change your response?

What is it without the question of it being real or imagined?

It is whatever it is and we won't be able to tell if its real or imagined so those words then don't matter in that sense.

Everything is exactly as it seems, until it seems otherwise, at which point, everything is still exactly how it seems.

Yeah good point haha.  That seems to be the case!  No wonder we have a hard time changing our view sometimes because what we see seems to be so and it can be hard to switch to some other view when we feel like we already have the one.

@PepperBlossoms We do already have the one.. our perspective is what it is, until it's something else.  What we believe about reality is not up to us.  My beliefs will change automatically when presented with sufficient reasons to change them, and I don't decide what qualifies as 'sufficient reasons'. 

I never try to change my mind.. my mind changes itself.. is changing. It's 'effortless'.
