reality or dream?

Reality is coexisting with my fantasy. How do I define this state of mind? I feel as if I am sinking into insanity, and then again I don't. This mind set is difficult to escape yet possible to forget, to overcome. Everything around me appears to be a dream, not one that is an enjoyable escape from reality, though. It is one that makes me question the point in believing reality in the first place. I question my existence, my control of my life, my thoughts, my feelings. What exactly am I doing here scribbling this mind numbing nonsense down? Is this even real? Ha, what is 'real', again? I am starting to forget any of the truth behind all of this. Ha, what is 'truth', again? I have forgotten. Reality or dream? What is this again?

    i have been reading Descartes' First Meditations which coincidentally discusses this issue of whether or not reality is the truth or is what society considers normal to be a trick brought on by a demon of some sort. it forced me to question everything that i consider rational, even a simple math equation.

    i highly suggest it.
