True but you don't have to take that part of reality all day every day.
As you can see by some of the target unhinged ramblings I post, somewhere in between is the happiest. Keep touch with reality but don't live in it.
I agree that you don't have to be actively aware of all aspects of reality at all times, but my point was that we do live in reality. That's inescapable - even when we're asleep reality continues on around us and including us. We're inseparable from it.
