Perception vs Reality.
After many years of pondering, I now feel that Perception is Reality.
What say thou?
For those who have the wherewithal to read on, here is the fine print (this is all my opinion, based on several events, experiences, readings, over all these years; please feel free to comment):
Consider two states:
Dream: During a dream, my mind creates a new universe and passes me through some events, circumstances. After the dream is over, this is all false. But, at the time the dream is happening, it is real; I meet a friend there, and talk to him, etc. and all this is real then. I come across a dangerous situation, and instinctively attempt to escape; maybe the heart pounds faster at that time; this is real. So, the perception felt during a dream is indeed reality. For each dream, the universe is different.
Waking: Similar to a dream, with an important difference: The dream repeats every day within the same universe, with the same set of people and locations. With every passing day, the perception changes, and hence the reality also changes. In other words, I perceive a new 'fact' about a person or situation; and this is my new reality. In essence, perception is reality. Notwithstanding the fact that this reality changes every day. The day my life ends, this is all false.
Did the above cause a perceived confusion in your mind? Well, that is indeed reality.

How would you know, you have never experienced that state
You cant outrun the world, but there is no harm in getting a head start

I first postulated my theory back in the 80's and I've vigorously avoided reality ever since!

It's an irrelevant debate. 
But keep in mind that your perception defines your reality, not mine, just as my perception defines my reality, not yours. It's pretty darn amazing that we can actually have a shared consensual reality.

Actually - you're on your own. The mistaken impression that you're experiencing a shared consensual reality is simply a manifestation of our schizophrenia.
Some of us already new that. The others are in denial.

you all don't exist you are just brains floating in a jar fed life from a computer (and looking at some of the questions in Q&A I now know where all the old 286's ended up)

From an old Usenet quote:
"Some scientists say that the brain is like a computer. If that is true, then there are no stupid people; only a few running DOS"
I'm sure we could come up with a more contemporary version...
I'm retired. There's a nap for that...

How can you be sure, you might just be imagining that
Life is like a s**t sandwich; the more bread you have, the less s**t you eat.

 I never thought of that!
Now I'm worried ... unless... perhaps I could imagine myself into a better job ... I'm going to work on that

LSD or magic mushrooms might help

My take on this is that reality is not a helpful term as it reifies what are essentially experiences or phenomena that are temporary and ever changing.
Perhaps a better explanation is that how I interpret my perception gives me a view of the world I live in.
On a more important point, I now have the munchies - can anyone recommend a good snack.
(I had better put down the pipe and get back to work)

No, it doesn't.
A dream is the bit of your nightly defrag and re-compression of existing memory data that is run through your perception centres for one of several possible reasons (probably including some we haven't thought of, yet).
There's nothing mystical about dreaming; it's a data-storage function.
