To me, reality is simply what's real. But how do we know what "real" is? In my opinion, something that is real can be physically touched or can be proven by facts. Objects are easily proven to be real because of their solidity, but ideas are harder to define as "real." People all around the world have different ideas about what reality is. One popular example of how people's ideas of reality differ is the Holocaust.
There are many people around the world who do not believe in the Holocaust. I personally believe that the Holocaust happened because there are many original documents and footage of what the Nazi's did to the Jews. I accept the Holocaust as reality because I have seen some if the videos and have seen pictures of the documents.
Although I believe that reality is defined as something that can be proven, I don't necessarily believe that something that can't be proven is definitely not reality. God is a good example if this. I believe that God is real, but there is absolutely no way to go back in time and prove he created the earth and everything on it. I accept the fact the we will never know the absolute truth.
