I will have chosen to spend my time in service to others, and that’s a choice I would make regardless of what is real and what is not.

I like this attitude, Erin. However, I do not agree with you that we cannot know. There is an insurmountable difference between awareness and thinking, between reality and opinions. As far as I am concerned, how can we even talk about personal development if we don't understand the difference?

Awareness is the key. Without it, we really live in the realm of beliefs and opinions.
