All day i have had the term 'down to earth' in my head, but really cannot explain what it actually means. Do any of you know exactly how to explain it? I think i am, i cannot explain how i am but my passions in life and everything have reasons for them, i am depthly into the conversation with them and i dont know i just think i am down to earth for my way of thinking of things, though just cant explain it LOL!
sorry if this seems pathetic but some of you may be easily better at explaining than me over the computer
Name one example of what a person would say too if they were down to earth? And if you are down to earth, how?
I always thought down to earth people are interesting with their way of speech and mind.
You are getting me there with it more However when you say that, give me an example of the fake word to the REAL down to earth word in a term of speech.? Like if someone who was down to earth was compared with someone that isnt, what would be any different in the term of their speeches? As an example now
so as an example then, a down to earth person would know about all the risks you take/possibilities etc in life, not just sit back epecting things to happen that way, but be in the real world?

Oh thanks I will see if i can understand this
sometimes i have to be explained to, not just given words as it never adds up to meI am sensible/realistic as i dont just sit in a dream world so i probably am down to earth because i know what the world is like in reality, plus i do often live in the real world
"Down to Earth" is just the opposite of having your "Head in the Clouds."
In other words, down to earth=real, on stable minded, not much of a day dreamer, while head in the clouds=imaginative, an 'airy' person, oblivious to the things around them (which are on the ground, or the 'earth')
I do have my head in the clouds sometimes, so im not always down to earth. However i grew out of being in a fake world, then bagan living in the real world, not relaxing i know people that daydream but also are down to earth in how they think/talk etc, so you can be in the clouds one minute then another minute not be
oh this is ever so confusing LOL!
I believe that every person can be part down to earth, then another oposite thing another minute.
That make sense though, its like the opposite, when your daydreamy you are not down to earth
