I went outside and the Mailman told me that the world was just a projection of thought through energy into form so that consciousness can better grow and experience, but I think he was just telling me what I wanted to hear.
In the words of Albert Einstein -
Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.
The only nature of reality that we can assume is that we don't know the nature of reality. From there, we guess. That's why science is all theories.
Oh, and physics/chemistry is very fun. Tiny particles, unfathomably small, group together and use their powerful atomic forces to bounce little photons of light around causing them to look a lot bigger than they are. Even solid lead is 99.98% empty space between and in the atoms, and inside the protons, neutrons and electrons that make up the atom, there's more space. You think that's air you are breathing? You think you stand on solid ground and have a solid roof over your head? Definately not, it's just atomic forces fooling matter to look real. I'm glad more people don't know the truth behind the reality they live in, or they would be scared to death.
