SO what do you consider me DE?? I think everyone is a little delusional for sure. I make no bones about who/what I am. I are what I are matey.....I am as honest/sincere as I can be today!!!!!!! Don't know about tomorrow, it aint here yet....lol.
My beliefs and truths as I see them, are after a lot of reading and watching, then make my choices/decisions.. What I think as truth may not be to you or even ribit, but it works for me and ,makes sense. I do feel you and I and the folks here are on the same side. We are all a little different, thank god for that. I imagine we could even be, get along neighbors....

Realist - Everybody in America is soft, and hates conflict. The cure for this, both in politics and social life, is the same -- hardihood. Give them raw truth.

re: "I am a realest DE. What category do I fall in ?? LOL."

A person is either a realist, or delusional, or something in between. But guess how many people believe themselves to be entirely or partly delusional? Pretty near ZERO.

So, the bottom line is that nearly everyone calls themselves realists... whether they are or not.

I think most people are "in-betweeners." And I don't think many know that about themselves.

I question how delusional I might be more often than most of you probably realize. I know full well that I've got some unconventional beliefs. Some REALLY unconventional beliefs, in fact. So, I look at them, and weigh into the equation that those beliefs are the ones where I've been the most successful... and wind up thinking that it's probably my CONVENTIONAL thoughts that are the most screwed up.

In other words, I've got supporting evidence to back up on a lot of my stranger beliefs. It's the CONVENTIONAL stuff that's generally let me down.

That makes sense, actually. I'm open to questioning almost everything about myself, and it's harder to be delusional if you guard against lies and prowl for truth. My current line of thought is that few things are as simple as they first seem, and my conventional beliefs are among the simplest I hold. They're mostly the ones I have because someone told me they were so when I was too young or naive (or lazy) to fight back. Hence, they're probably WRONG.

I'm a garden in need of weeding. Most of us are. But at least I'm here every day working on it.
