You take the blue pill, the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill, you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. That innocuous sentence was always the start to the path’s taken by everyone who was deemed ready to be unplugged, and taken into what was reality. The red pill will always start that journey for you and you will be shown the truth, but is that the better choice?
The matrix universe is a fairly large universe created by the Wachowski brothers, and for the majority of people who have not taken the effort it takes to actually watch all of the movies, play all the games, and read the comics, they remain lost and have no idea what really happened and even for those of us who have delved into the true meanings and happenings in this vast universe are still left with an ever present shade of gray about everything.
We do know quite a bit about it however, we know that the matrix is a computer program designed to enslave humanity. We know that there have been more than one version of the matrix and we know that the matrix has restarted itself several times. For those who become unplugged and have rejected the matrix their safe haven is in Zion, the large underground city which houses the humans who have become unplugged. This safe haven turns out to be just another level of control for the machines, because zion and the matrix are for the most part just different layers of the same program. The story is an enthralling one and I do recommend you actually delve into further if you have not done so already.
We see so much happen throughout the matrix, but because the end of revolutions just leaves us with hundreds of questions about everything, and we do not ever see what is real and what is just an elaborate illusion in which this entire universe sits within another universe and where the actions of every character never truly makes any difference on the grand scale of things. The story is deep and you are perpetually forced to fill in the blanks that have been purposefully left out.
All of this, just points back to one simple question that you have to ask. If you are a slave no matter which path you take, would it have been better to just take the blue pill to begin with?
The grass being greener on the other side is a phrase that perfectly sums up this entire story. When first given the red pill blue pill choice, the events that lead up to it only makes the mystery of what is on the other side so alluring, that you will always choose to continue through the looking glass and into wonderland. However, what you are immediately met with is waking up plugged in then enduring the pain and confusion of being unplugged and flushed into a sewer, then picked up and enduring weeks of surgery and rehabilitation just to get to a point where you can function. Once you are to a point where you can function and grasp this new reality, you are going to be in a boring and paranoid existence where all you can do is go back into the matrix with cheat codes. Because there is no longer any vegetation or wildlife you are stuck eating what can only be described as nutrient slop to keep you alive while you are outside of the matrix. Also you will be completely paranoid at all times because around every single corner are giant machines with sharp parts which exist only to murder humans in the worst imaginable ways. This extends from your new reality back into the matrix because you are going to be pursued by entities within the matrix which have the same cheat codes you now have only they use them better than you and the only thing you can do is run away. This reality is viewed as a resistance that every single one of them chose to jump into, but in reality the choice was given by the machines who know that no matter what happens, nothing happens.
The blue pill choice however, you wake up in your home, pretend it was all just a dream, and continue to live your life. Can you do cool flips and face kicks, can you dodge bullets and fly, no, but then you never would have a reason to as you would just be in the illusion that is the matrix. But nobody will ever make that choice, because when the choice is given, neither path is ever shown to the person making the choice. You only know what was behind you and you can only look in two directions never seeing what is behind the curtain that perpetually moves in front of your face. The closest you get are the small glimpses as the curtain swishes from side to side as you walk forwards down your path. You never see the full picture and therefore you never make the obvious choice. That sums up life pretty well I think, you never know where you are going until you get there and by then you can only look back and speculate on what could have been had you taken the blue pill.
This brings us back to the perpetual shade of gray that plays the largest part in everything, and leaves all of you to just fill in the blanks.
As always and until next time.
