Are we able to create our own reality?

[VestnikRA]

There are things that happen, that have a real effect on our lives, that are outside of our control, however, they are not outside of our ability to mold our perception of them.

This is an age old discussion, which can be very interesting.

If anyone is of the belief that they can totally control/create their reality and would like some examples of why I believe this to not stand the test of the logical extreme, let me know. I'll post some up.

Of course we can't completely control things that are already happening with us. But were not we those who made them happen afterall? In this sence we create our reality, just in most cases we don't realise that.
