A certain degree of maturity is required to fully accept reality, and
this comes from experience. T h e more fresh experiences y o u acquire,
the faster your thinking will mature. The more y o u seek shelter and
comfort through diversion, escapism, and fantasy, the longer you'll
suffer from immature and inaccurate thinking.
Children have the most inaccurate models of reality because they
lack experience, so their minds are less adept at making accurate pre-
dictions. It's easy to fool an inexperienced child with a trick that an
adult w o u l d catch. T h e adult has enough experience to accurately
predict the o u t c o m e ; the child does not.
You can't align yourself with truth and flee from it at the same
time. If y o u wish to live as a fully conscious h u m a n being, y o u must
release the immaturity of escapism and embrace the deeper growth
experiences that only maturity can bring.
