"This Words has been never spoken, never written, because we are not here.
We are just an illusion, a dream, just virtuality created by our souls to comprehend what is truly real..."
The answer? Oh!!! God really knows am trying to figure it... But that isn't the point, am not even trying to tell that is true, those words comes to my mind when trying to give an introduction to one of the most passionate topic, not just for myself, but hundreds of philosophers over centuries: what is reality?.
I do reach that question by less orthodox methods than they do, was trying to figure what is virtuality in terms of virtual reality, one of those computer topics has ever interested me. But how to define what is virtual without knowing for sure what is real? and to explain it will use one of the passages with most depth i had found in a movie:

"...What is real. How do you define real? If you're talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, what you can taste and see, then real is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain. This is the world that you know..."Morpheus - The Matrix (1999)
That is all?, are we just a five-sense peripheriall bio-electrical computer?. Don't think so, but we need to stop calling real just what out senses tells are real, don't you think?. You can see in multiple SCI/FI movies and series , devices intended to project images and sensations straight to the mind, imagine for a second those devices exists, in that case they were projecting a virtual reality (lets call it that way for today) and no one should think its real. But if that isn't real, can we call signals sent by sense receptors real?, when they are in some way the exact or similar nature than the fictitiuos device mentioned early?
In the most righteous way the answer is no. To not get crazy, we called it our inner perception of reality, it also allow us to explain why everybody perceives what is real in different ways. But there is a problem with it , Perception isn't equal to Reality. Now we are back at beginning... What is Reality?
One thing is real for sure, this are Virtual Words...
