That was the choice placed before the character "Neo" in The Matrix. Morpheus says "all I'm offering is the truth, and nothing more." I think the blue and red pills are symbolic of denial and acceptance of reality. It is an artful way of showing something that is applicable in real life. Reality and denial are not just words and these concepts are not mere props in a movie.
No, please do not misunderstand. I'm not claiming we are all living in The Matrix. But I do believe we are all living in massive denial. Morpheus is but a character in a movie who does know something that he wants to show. But we are not living the movie. This is real life, so what is the truth?
The real trick is finding out what the truth is because it isn't so easy to know who is deceiving you and who is not. But somebody is.
I have something in mind that sparked these thoughts. Go to Barnhardt's website and see if you want to see how deep the rabbit hole goes. Again, all it is but an attempt to see reality for what it is. You have to decide whatever it is that you want to believe.
