Many of us live our daily lives by going to work, coming home taking care of our family, and paying bills. A lot of us don't think about the bigger picture or some of the realities that we have to face.

I mean, who wants to go through their life worried about the hard dark realities of life? Well, I mean we can't exactly escape it so it's nice sometimes to get a reminder of what's to come.

We have a tendency to lose a sense of reality when going through our day-to-day life, but this Reddit post sure did show us exactly what we didn't want to remember about our day-to-day life. A Reddit question was posted that said "What are some of the most common dark realities people choose to live in denial about?"

This question actually got a lot of responses, but we would like to say that this is a bit of a serious topic and there is a conversation about death, suicide, and other triggering things. I think I can speak for most of us when I say that it's fun to almost forget about these dark realities, but today we are looking deep into them.

1. Here's the question that started it all.

2. Altering memories is a real thing and many have no idea that they are doing it.

3.Sometimes things that last aren't the best for you.

4. This is so true and many people don’t really understand this concept.

5. You're the as*hole. Oops.

6. Realizing you're the problem can bring so much peace.

7. The fear of losing everyone is real and it’s a true fear.

8. This is scary to think about and makes you grateful.

9. Terrible things happen every single day.

10. This is extremely sad, but true. Life can't really stop even if you lose someone you love.

11. This is a crazy thing to think about. It really puts things in perspective.

12. Say it louder for the people in the back. This is a problem that needs to be recognized.

13. I don't even want to think about this because that is scary.

14. Good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people.

15. It's okay to be ordinary because most of us are anyway.

16. This is true and it can happen in a blink of an eye.

17. This is terrifying and sad to think about. This is why the system needs to change.

18. Memories aren't as accurate as we might think.

19. Ohhh, this one is about hoarders. Hoarding is a real problem.

20. This is extremely sad and sickening. More people need to realize this and be cautious.

These dark realities really have us in our feelings after reading these. I think a lot of us like to live our life every day not remembering things like this as it just makes life a bit more enjoyable and less stressful.

With that being said though, sometimes it's best to really understand what's going on in the world.
