So.... none of you exist.... That's okay; I don't exist to you either. The only thing that you can know is that you exist, but only to yourself. The rest of it could very well be your imagination; your mind finding substance to an idea that is purely formulated in your brain. Well your brain could be a part of your imagination as well, so I suppose that places everything in your mind. Your mind would thus be more than it's experiences in that everything you observe you must already know because your mind is formulating it as an experience to your conscious.

Now supposing there really are physical items and persons out there. You can only assume what your mind is telling you is true. Sounds, light, physical touch, smells, tastes... Our only measurable senses from which we can receive input are just nerve impulses being manipulated and translated once the mind picks it up. You never really know what's out there, only what your mind thinks is out there and your mind only knows how to think. The mind ends up settling on what it can interpret from the available sensory and focus on internal mental capabilities falters, thus the mind begins to think in a very similar way.

End for now... attention span dwindling.
