What is Real?

How do we know
that what we see
is not the figment
of someone's imagination?

That what we call
real
is not a dream
or in
the edge
of consciousness
of a person?

That what we dream
is a fake, 
made up world
from our subconscious
and not the other way
around?

Perhaps the world
we always thought as 
twisted and impossible
is actually normal
and the world
we consider
authentic 
is the
insane
one?




I just watched the movie "Inception" and it totally messed with my mind. I was left with so many questions about what was real and what was a dream that someone created. What was the thing that we called "reality" and what was "fake" or "untrue".
What if someone did find out that the world we consider "real" is actually all a dream, and the crazy, impossible world of our subconscious and imagination is reality?
