Reality

Reality... a product 

or perhaps symptom

of perceptions...

created by dreams

and premonitions.

The concept of time is relevant. 
It's a mixed bag affecting

our perception of reality.

Profound insights?

That's up to you.

  Constraints of family & friends

work and obligations... society...

all contribute to stability of our perceptions.

Real or imagined.

Or maybe it's all simply hooey.

But, there is something to it all.

How it affects us psychologically.

Which is real. 

Then, on reflection...

Does having and surviving several strokes

Without catastrophic effects

Change the mental processes.

Moments of exceptional clearity of thought

and insight to something profound. 
Deeper thought beyond the normal? 
Normal for me, or normal in society?

Heightened abilities / thought processes?

Or nothing at all.
