Reality still exists whether or not there is a perceiver to be aware of it. But reality will not collapse to a defined state until something or someone is to observe it. Reality will be a "blur" until it is perceived. Also, like you were discussing our mind does "distort" what we perceive so that we may have a better understanding of what is around us. Freewill may be an illusion but we are at least free to act within what defines us.
