If I could have one wish, I would wish more than anything that we as humanity could let go of our illusions –
religious illusions
political illusions
personal illusions
so that we could take a cold, hard look at reality as it actually is, and work together to solve our real problems at the core. Of course, I would have to start with myself, being willing to let go of any illusions I still hold, illusions I am blind to. In fact, I have found that it is almost impossible for any of us to recognize our own illusions until we have come to a place where we are willing to let them go.

In this world of ours, you need illusions to keep a semblance of sanity
