At the end of each lifetime, people deserve to feel happiness in knowing they lived the reality that made them happy, in trusting the knowledge they gained as individuals through their personal experiences, thoughts, and choices.

Each person undergoes the process of accumulating the knowledge they need to survive this life, and that process consists of love and loss, faith and failure, illusion and truth.

It is the job of individuals to choose the reality they wish to live, to always challenge the truth before them/the truth they are told…for who is to say what reality is the truth? It is our experiences as human beings that give us the knowledge we need to continue on to the next experience, and to learn what truth we can trust to make our reality we want to live in.

In other words, our reality is made up of the truths we trust, and if we happen to trust the wrong ones—the illusions—our reality is diminished to something we do not want.

Knowledge comes from the search for happiness, and yet, along the journey, individuals can lose their way and trust the wrong path or standard—trust the wrong truth that says, "look like this." But when a truth is found that does not make an individual compromise what makes his reality a good one—a happy one—the knowledge gained from those uncomfortable experiences is worth it and is in every way valuable.

The only universal truth out there is that there is no universal truth. There are just truths individuals choose to believe, truths individuals choose to embody into their realities, by using the knowledge they trust.

It is up to us as individuals to dictate our realities and to choose the truths we feel are right for us.

The only way we can know they are right is by growing from failure, learning from hardship, and always challenging anything that stands in our way to happiness—in this way, we gain knowledge as to what that happiness entails for us. From all the stars—truths— in the sky, individuals are free to find whatever constellation—reality— they choose.

We must ask ourselves, "What reality do we want to live in?" and "What truths do we want to trust?"
