How do you know when you're living a lie? That all you are doing is fooling yourself? You act like something you know you aren't but soon you convince yourself that that's who you are. Wouldn't you still be playing the part though?
"All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely actors"
When my Humanities teacher had taught us that, I thought I'd forget it like I do everything else.
But I didn't.
It really surprised me when I started typing this entry. I never thought I'd bring up something school related of all things. It just came out.
If it's all an illusion, then you would not know when it's the real thing. However, if it is real, then you would think it is an illusion. So if you don't think about it, you would never know. When you do think about it, you still don't know.
Curiousity that is every person's downfall, so wouldn't ignorance be better?

Does it matter if it's an illusion if illusion and life are the same?
ReplyDeleteThey're all in the mind.
Yes, we are all actors, but special in that we get to choose which role(s) we want to play.
Just go out and pwn that stage before we have to exit. :D
