Reality is a sliding door.

Summary

This quote suggests that reality is not fixed or permanent, but rather fluid and constantly changing. It implies that the way we perceive and interpret reality can be influenced by various factors, such as our experiences, beliefs, and perspectives. Just like a sliding door can open or close, our understanding of reality can also shift, revealing new possibilities or limiting our perception. It implies that we have the power to shape our own reality based on how we perceive and interpret the world around us.
