YOU alone can make your reality the way you want it to be! Reality is not always cut and dry either…for example, your reality on a certain something may not be someone elses reality on that same something. So please remember when you make reference to reality, that is how you see it and may not be how someone else sees it. And remember, if you ever find yourself not liking your reality…YOU HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE IT! Now I know some things can not be changed but you can do things to make them better or different…think positive. The power of positive thinking is powerful and can help your reality more than you think…try it out! :)

The following is the meaning of reality according to the Webster’s dictionary:

Definition of REALITY (taken from Webster.com)
1: the quality or state of being real
2a (1): a real event, entity, or state of affairs <his dream became a reality> (2): the totality of real things and events <trying to escape from reality>
2b: something that is neither derivative nor dependent but exists necessarily
3: television programming that features videos of actual occurrences (as a police chase, stunt, or natural disaster)

And here is the meaning of reality according to Dictionary.com:

Definition of REALITY (taken from Dictionary.com)
1. The state or quality of being real.
2. Resemblance to what is real.
3. A real thing or fact.
4. Real things, facts, or events taken as a whole; state of affairs: the reality of the business world; vacationing to escape reality.

While 2011 is now gone, it definitely is not forgotten…with that said I welcome in 2012 and hope that is brings wonderful learning experiences!

Below are some pictures from my New Year’s Eve celebration!
