Good thread Rosie…
Being a relatively well informed and pragmatic person… I’m not all that much into SR… but I am into reality… and it is my firm belief that we live in two realities…
There is the physical reality… where physical objects and auditory input actually exist as we see or hear them… this reality should generally be shared by all… if you and I look at a rock… it should be the same rock for both of us…
However, there is also conceptual reality… where every thing takes its definition and meaning… that is where there is a reality that is uniquely ours… and not completely shared with anyone else…
That same rock that we look at has a very different meaning for each of us… if we both wrote a book on that rock… they would be so different that people would wonder if we were talking about the same rock…
Did I or did I not create that rock…??? I don’t believe that I did… but I did create what the rock means for me… and its place in my own personal universe...
