We shower our children with these thoughts that we have received when we were children. We tell them that they are special and that we as humans are special; that we are the main characters. And so our children grow up to believe this. But this belief is contradicted in the real world; there we are merely another part and not a main character at all. And so we are confused when what we have learned as children does not add up with the real world. And since we do not like to be confused, we avoid it and lull ourselves back into the illusion that we are indeed main characters. And then we teach this to our children and the cycle of deceit and illusion continues. And we stray further from realness.
