Question:It's better to be than to seem...Socrates.

Things are not always what they seem, they say, but when are they what they seem? When, if possible, imagination and reality meet?

Thank you for your comments!

reality is the outcome of faith in God i.e: what comes by the grace of God not by sheer imagination alone. ' what seem' is 'not seen' becos of mere imagination without faith in God

Perspectives change from person to person, and their own experience make things seem a certain way. Reality is near impossible to reach when we only have our own perspective on things. That doesn't make it a case of imagination though, it would make it a case of individual logic and reason which would create a mild illusion (seen as truth in the beholder's eyes) which can easily be applicable and relative.

When planning (imagination) meets opportunity.
