739: 2011-04-03: Reality has its own structure, independent of our wishes. It is what it is and doesn't care what we want.
740: 2011-04-03: We all start with a childhood delusion that reality will conform to our desires. If we want something, we only need to wish for it.
741: 2011-04-03: The essential skills of wisdom are knowing your limitations, recognizing reality as an independent entity and seeing the needs of others.
742: 2011-04-03: The most important thing about reality is that it has no regard for your wishes. It takes a long time and many failures to learn this fact.

793: 2011-03-04: People want solutions to their problems but without disrupting their existing emotional investments. So... no real solutions!
794: 2011-03-04: Reality may be a video game, but no other offers so much depth and complexity—and so many challenge levels!
795: 2011-03-03: The world imposes real boundaries on you, but they are usually less than the imaginary barriers you impose upon yourself.
796: 2011-03-03: The greatest joy of reality is the surprises! Things can come together in ways you'd never expect yet make perfect sense in the end.
797: 2011-03-03: There are two ways to respond to the world: the way your past has set you up for, and the way that really works.
798: 2011-03-03: Don't blame your parents for what you are doing now. It's your responsibility to adjust to the real world, not theirs.
799: 2011-03-03: Our parents fed us so much bullshit! But that was their job. You can't handle reality all at once, so fairy tales are the intermediate step.
800: 2011-03-03: Adjusting to the demands of real world is traumatic for everyone, regardless of their upbringing.
801: 2011-03-03: The trouble with an online identity is that it becomes binding over time, just like a real-life one.

806: 2011-02-28: For the marketer, the advantage of a crap product over a real one is the higher markup. This funds more advertising, which sells more crap.
807: 2011-02-28: Fakery persists because it works. Given the right signals, people will purchase the illusion of quality instead of the real thing.
808: 2011-02-23: People are swayed by brand names (Gucci, Harvard, Kardashian) because it's easier than making real decisions about the underlying product.
809: 2011-02-23: Reality is full of surprises—things you never would have expected from afar. Only direct experience will show you these things.
