That's what I keep telling you. Your thoughts create your reality.
But, what do you mean by reality? Are you including everything physical in that?

Yes, there are many perspectives of reality, but do you create the perspective or the reality?

I may see the tomato as a nasty, repulsive thing and you may see it as something beautiful. But they are just our personal views about it. We are responding to thoughts and images in our mind concerning tomatoes.

Those views don't affect its objective reality. A tomato is what it is. It may mean a million things to a million people, but it is still a tomato.

The tomato has its own, unique existence and beingness which makes it a tomato, which is separate from our perception of it. It is part of creation.
