What is your reality? If you ask me the same question, the answer will be different from yours.
When one see's supposed situation as a wonderful opportunity to grow, evolve, the other see's it an utter disaster. One see's a plant with flowers, the other see's Dasiphora fruticosa ssp. floribunda. When one barely notices the swing in the park the other can't wait to swing the day away. When one see's a perfect meal the other see's the very same meal as suitable for pigs and pigs only. All of them; supposed situation, a plant, a swing in the park or a meal, do not exist without an evaluator. The swing can be in the park but when no one has been to the park there really isn't any swing!
So I ask a question- what if I choose not to give a second thought to the swing? What if I do not accept the negative things happening to me as my reality?

So is there a difference between reality and perception? Of course not.
