“Resistance to reality is an unwillingness to see things are they truly are.  It’s the struggle you’re in when you fight against an unsatisfactory situation, trying to change it through force, manipulation or any tactic where you’re trying to control the outcome.  It’s the fear you feel in the face of change.”
