Most of us know Shakespeare's famous words "The world is a stage" (some may believe they are Elvis's!!). What if it is true? In an old "Twilight Zone" episode, an actor has identified so much with his character that he refuses to accept "reality". In order to escape his unhappy family life, his mind has switched to a new "frame" and he intends to stick to it at all costs. He doesn't want to believe that he is playing a role in a movie. He chooses the illusion of a fake existence because he doesn't want to face his actual situation. Do we do the same, but in the opposite direction? Do we live a "difficult" life because we don't want to accept the possibility that a better, more serene and fulfilling one is possible, simply by changing a "negative" belief?
