Because our perceptions are not real, we are all walk ing around with our own reality in our own little private worlds with all our meanings and stories about ourselves, others, and beliefs about the world.
Even memories of our past are not real. If a football was in the middle of the room and someone moved it, it would no longer be here, would it We may have a memory of the football, but it is not real at all now.
So if this is the case, why do past events still seem so real right now Why do you feel rejected, sad or traumatized just by remembering an event If it is not real, is in the past and is not present now, why does one feel the emotion years, decades, and possibly a half century later
The answer is quite simple. Our experiences cause us to attach meanings and beliefs to the stimulus a memory, thought, smell, sound or even a place . These feelings are coded in our physical bodies. When we come across a specific memory or other stimuli, those meanings, beliefs and feelings resurface.

-I don’t deserve money.
-Money is hard to get.
-I am not good enough.
