In everyday usage it means everything that exists.
Reality is the degree of agreement reached by two ends of a communication line.
Reality is not what is “real” its what we think is real.

We all create our realities of people, events, and things in our environment internally using this process.
There are three overall steps:◦ Selecting◦ Sorting◦ Interpreting data from our environment

Closure◦ Is the mind’s imperative to make sense out of its
environment, even when only a limited amount of data is available.
◦ This is not a conscious activity, but more of a physiological reflex reaction.

Selective Perception◦ Takes place when we narrow available cognitions
to make interpretation of the environment.◦ We use only as many cognitions as are
necessary to make a judgment about persons, events, and things in our life.• Patterning
The attempt to keep new or current perceptions in line with past ones.
Helps us avoid the discomfort of dealing with new or conflicting information by keeping such information within the bounds of an already defined stasis.

We see what makes sense and not what is actually there.
When these situations are created on purpose to fool the brain we call them optical illusions.
