If the Real World is so Grand why am I Here?

The only reason I left the real world and returned here is ego identification. In other words I wanted to be different. I wanted contrast. I identified myself with an ego. I seperated.
 
It’s the cause of all problems in the unreal world that we are living in. Shift and change. Day and night. Hot and cold. Rich and poor. Healthy and sick. Young and old. It keeps changing. I came here to die. Everything here dies. Plants, animals, relationships, daylight, people, houses, neighborhoods, schools, towns, cities and even countries. Nothing here lasts. Read a history book.
 
We seem to keep trying to make it all work out. We all came from a place of peace and joy and wanted to be ego identified and try and get peace and joy. It sounds so crazy but we keep doing this over and over. We are taught over and over again in A Course of Miracles and there is no death. Yet we come to the unreal world to die.
 
The Course also teaches that we all come to the realization of what we seem to be doing and at that moment we become sensitive to the delay. That is certainly happening to me now. My realization of my circular behavior makes me yearn for the real world in every way possible. What do I mean by my circular behavior? My insane approach. Einstein defined insane as ,”doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result.” That pretty much sums it up for this world. If there was TIVO in the year I was born (1961) and I recorded the evening news every night from that point and I went back and watched any piticular episode I WOULD SEE THE SAME THING. The faces would be different but the news would be the same. I would see horrible situations that would play out over and over. I would see violent weather episodes that would make me glad it was somewhere else. I would see senseless killings, end of the world is near stories. I could pick any year, any day and any hour and it would all be the same. We seem to be insane. We are doing the same things over and over and expecting a different result. It has never changed. It will never change. Sounds depressing.
 
But there is a solution. Forgiving this insane way. Forgive=Let-it-go.
