The Rabbit Hole...

I enjoyed the Matrix...well the first one at least...(then they got ridiculous and just really long.) Anyways...I feel like up until this point in my life, if asked on the spot if I wanted to take the red or blue pill, I would not have hesitated and taken the red pill soooo fast. However, nowadays if asked I would hesitate and ::wait for it:: I think I would take the blue pill. I just want to be suspended in time...I was explaining this to one of my friends, and she asked me if I still want to be an "Eyeball Helper" (I Love that term), and I told her it has nothing to do with that...i know that is what I want to do... Hopefully I'll snap out of it...

I guess it took half a summer for this to happen, because around graduation time, everyone was all sad...and talking about how this is the end, but it didn't really bother me. I knew it would hit me later, and I guess later is now...Oh well. I included the dialogue from the beginning of the Matrix...lots of allusions and just overall intriguing.

MORPHEUS Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself.

NEO How?

MORPHEUS Hold out your hands.

In Neo's right hand, Morpheus drops a red pill.

MORPHEUS This is your last chance. After this, there is no going back.

In his left, a blue pill.

MORPHEUS You take the blue pill and the story ends. You wake in your bed and you believe whatever you want to believe.

The pills in his open hands are reflected in the glasses.

MORPHEUS You take the red pill and you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.

Neo feels the smooth skin of the capsules, with the moisture growing in his palms.

MORPHEUS Remember that all I am offering is the truth. Nothing more.

Neo opens his mouth and swallows the red pill. The Cheshire smile returns.



Right now at this point in your life, which would you choose? Red or blue pill? Until Next Time...
