What is the true definition of reality?
Is reality pinned as
the physical aspects of our everyday lives, or is it the information that’s
been shared and passed down throughout our cultures?
I say it’s neither.
There is no absolute definition of reality.
How do we logically explain exactly what reality is?
We can’t.
Perception is reality.
Mentality is everything.
Each individual has a different outlook on life, a different
pErCePtIoN of each thing imaginable.
With opposing opinions about what reality means, we stray further
and further
away from a solid clarification.
At least once a week I hear the dreaded phrase, “and now
it’s back to reality.”
People continue to utter these words after they’ve done
something fun.
After they’ve lived a little.
People continue to utter these words when they have unwanted responsibilities to tend to.
These three days submerged by the music were the most
exciting three days of my life, and they are arguably the best three days I’ve
ever had.
Full of passion, full of FUN, and full of feeling like a ~*dream*~.
To me, music makes the world go ‘round.
I was able to share my love of the music with the ones I
hold dear to my heart, and the ones who waved flags from all over the world.
Together, these people made my experience overwhelmingly sensational.
The weekend had me f l o a t i n g on a cloud.
But what I realized was that, letting the music take over my
body wasn’t a dream at all, it was my reality. And what a damned good reality
it was.
The struggles of life are associated with the word reality.
But why?
Perception is reality, and reality is what you make it.
Reality is laughing.
Reality is loving.
Reality is living.
Honestly, the whole blog project was my favorite part of this entire class. I’ve always loved reading other people’s blogs in my free time, and I spend some free time on Tumblr. Granted Tumblr is mostly filled with picture blogs, I still enjoyed viewing the creativity of others. I’ve always been one to think outside the box and challenge the professional ways of thinking. I was excited to learn that we were doing this blog project because it would allow me to get some creative juices flowing for a class when I usually have to write with a prompt or certain structure. I felt like your guidelines for each blog project challenged myself and my thought process, which was refreshing and an escape from all of my other schoolwork. I think that maybe if we had some more time and focus or more blog assignments, I could’ve made them a little better, but I think overall I did well with it. I loved the interacting with other blogs aspect of the whole project. It allowed us to pull ideas from other peoples’ work and turn our blogs to a different direction than we might’ve if we didn’t interact with them in the first place. It challenged us to incorporate someone else’s thoughts and ideas creatively into our own without changing the subject of our blogs completely. I also enjoyed how the requirements for incorporating others’ blogs into our own made us read and appreciate the other blog projects in the class. Even though we only had to interact with a few, I took the time to view other blogs and appreciate the artistry and uniqueness of each one. Even though the blogs were anonymous, it allowed me to get to know the students in my class on a deeper level, some more vulnerably than others. It made the blog project more meaningful than just a mark in the grade book. Overall, I really enjoyed the blog project and encourage more professors to add this into their curriculum.
