When you want people or things to be other than what they are, you are saying a big fat NO to reality. I like what Byron Katie says about it: when you argue with reality, you lose every time. It's a sure recipe for suffering.

Anyway, you are creating what's real in the first place, so you would just be saying NO to yourself. Insanity!
