Popping The Reality Bubble

People live in their own personal reality bubble. As discussed before, reality is perception and perception is the deception of one's mind. Even the colors that you see everyday aren't concrete. The mind interrupts light that is reflected off objects in your eyes. Thusly, you can't be sure that the colors you see are actually real. Many species see colors that we can't see. Colors were created so we can tell the difference between objects other than shape..If the evolution of our species were slightly different, we could be seeing totally different colors than what we see today.

Most of the time, people dwell in their personal bubble until something big enough happens to disturb their reality so that they are forced to get involved or open their mind. People don't care what happens with the world as long as they don't think that it affects them. Thusly being ignorant is a valued commodity. It allows people to freely live their lives without much worry.

Popping the "Reality Bubble" requires a person to become informed with what is going on in the world and be able to think for one self, instead of letting the media control your mind.
