"While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal."  (2 Cor. 4:18).
Reality oftentimes eludes us.We assume that reality is what we can see, feel, taste and control; our senses, that is measurable and malleable to our comfort and needs. But reality is acknowledging that in spite of all we know (and we do know bunch more than, say, just fifty years ago) we're no nearer to the happiness and fulfilment we desire. The world we've created because of our liberty to explore has not bought us peace and contentment; the more we have, the more we want to have. Maybe, just, maybe, reality goes beyond the senses, into realms of the Eternal
