Like this book, _A Course in Miracles_ also says that we do not actually perceive things as they really are. I had started to wonder if we were like in the _Spy Kids_ movies, playing in a virtual reality/video game. It is rather scary to start playing with perception because disperception can get folks labelled lunatics. But isn't it scary and saddening to walk around thinking you are more limited than you really are? It feels empowering to ask of every uncomfortable situation, why has my Expanded Self created this for me? What can I learn from it? Now what new situation do I want to create for myself?
