About This Quote
The real world is the world that surrounds us or surrounds everyone, whereas the real world is the place where people are real. The real world is what you are when you are in touch with yourself, when you are in touch with your own thoughts in order to make decisions. You can go to the real world with people who are good for you in order to find answers, in order to find answers about what to do next. But if you go to the wrong places with the wrong people, eventually your questions will be answered in the wrong way.
