real life or just an illusion?

Filed under: my mind

have you ever watch this movie called “The Truman Show”?

i watched it more than once. it’s so simple, but yet nowadays i think about similiar case. on the movie, this guy was “trapped” as the single star of a reality show. the idea of the movie was placing so many cameras so whatever this guy does, all the people could see. people then too involved with any personal feelings of this guy. the desperate, the anger etc.

the only way out was by sailing on the water, which he scared of. but one day he made it! everything is ended just by opening the door of the studio on the other side of the water. that’s all…

talking about the movie, people starting to chat about how entertainment is surrounding us. how we are “trapped” by any of the entertaining stuffs.

but a question for me is:
what if our lives is the same story as we have seen in “The Truman Show”?
what if what i needed is to open the right door across the sea?

then it would be easier to understand our lives. it is understandable to think why sometimes lives aren’t so fair

why good people are loose and bad people are the winner?
why lives are not so controlable by us?
why some people get the best luck and others don’t?
why some people easily get rich but some burried poorly?

and so on…

if anyone of us could find the right door: please just tell the rest of us…
so we can decide each by our own selves, do we want to keep this kind of trapped life, or just walkaway and break free to be our selves.
