Virtual Reality

Virtual Reality is a term used to describe technology used to digitally recreate things that are encountered in everyday life, or even not-so-everyday life. And these experiences can be made to seem to happen as if we were far away from our actual location. The point is that the things are made to appear as real as possible while they lack the very life of the things they attempt to portray.

I think that life can often be like that, often trying to recreate the things that we know are real but that often end up being lifeless imitations. What if this life was merely a virtual reality "veil" placed over our eyes temporarily? If its very reality could be questioned, then none of these things that happen to me, no matter how "real" they seem, can threaten the real me.

Beginning from day one and reading. I like this post. It is a reminder that our reality is not what we think it is. we live day to day in a physical world that is in no way related to the other equally real spiritual realm we also have access too. we can be reinserted into the "matrix" of the physical but it never negates the reality that also exists in the spirit realm. the difference being it takes effort at times to seek the spiritual but no effort is needed at all to exist in the physical.
