I’m conscious of my awareness and I subjectively interpret my surroundings (an objective reality) with my faculties. When I observe an object, an event, etc – I interpret it based on a number of factors (my beliefs, feelings, prior experience, etc).
My ability to observe something has nothing to do with an existence of an objective reality. Right now, I cannot observe my best friend, because he is in a different location, but he exists regardless of my current ability to observe him.
