The most irrational things we do are turned into tradition, to validate our shared irrationality.
From religion to war, we take sides not out of reason, but a shared irrationality that bonds stronger than reality.
Reality is raw, brutal and enduring. You have to be stoic to handle it for what it is. Most people avoid it during their short stay on earth, by joining an irrational club.
Irrationality is an illusion that temporarily tunes off reality, just like children covering their eyes when they think danger is approaching.
From birth to death, no human is totally weaned from irrationality. Noticing your irrationality is a differentiator in this amusement park called life.
