"I'm a realist. Who are you?"

"Only if you could snap your fingers and instantly connect this piece of terra firma with its mother ship."
You can just think of me as your higher self then. How about I share some dharma with you?
"Is that like a Snickers bar? I am kind of hungry..."
No, it is teachings about truth - this particular set I'm going to tell you about is called the Four Reflections.
"Will it be useful for my present situation?"
Dharma is always practical. The Four Reflections state: 1) Life is precious; 2) Everything is impermanent and changing; 3) Our thoughts, words and actions have consequences - so it's a good idea to be mindful and not reactive; 4) Our suffering is caused by a constant desire for stability in an unstable world.
"So you're saying I should quit whining and fretting because things will change eventually. What am I supposed to do while I'm waiting?"
Enjoy the beautiful view from here.
