The joys of being a "normal" person:

- Waste your youth in school learning irrelevant, useless stuff
- Spend 50% of your waking life (the better 50% for that matter) on a boring, underpaid job
- Spend 80% of your life chasing material success, all the while claiming money does not bring you happiness
- Say you believe in God but act as if you don't
- Say you are saddened by hunger and poverty in the world, but make sure your investment in mutual funds doesn't go to troubled, unstable countries
- Most of all, live as if your life were eternal knowing you'll be gone in no time

In short, forget "ultimate reality", which is irrelevant, and focus on buying that cool new gadget the Japanese just invented.

And don't forget that most essential of human activities:

Have fun!

(PS: I'm just being cynical. Sort of)
