Just as a circle cannot also be a square, can't something exist and not exist. If fantasy were real, it would be self-contradictory because by definition fantasy is something that is not real. Therefore, if something is real, it is a part of reality; whereas, if something is fantasy, the idea itself exists in reality, but the object of the idea does not. However, depending on the plausibility of the idea, the object might exist somewhere, sometime, but not here and now. Reality then, consists of everything that currently exists, has existed, and will yet exist.
