Shared conciousness
We build a world, a virtual world. Only existing in shared consiousness, some overlapping areas as we explained to each other what we were perceiving.
But mostly several worlds, only existing in the heads of the participants, interwoven at some sections.. and sometimes we build a bridge to a bigger world, an mmorpg.. and continued to live there for a bit.. like a small holiday.
We did everything in these worlds, we werenât happy in the âreal worldâ, so we built this together instead. A place where we could be whoever we wanted to be, do anything we wanted to do.. but most importantly, connect on a deeper level. Even though most of us were painting a picture to others what we most wanted to be.. I still believe the biggest parts of those were our true cores. With our true desires, since we felt no shame, no need for masks, judgement only on what we would show and not whatâs underneath..
I remember my blog being popular due me just venting unregulated about my life. Even publicly admiting I was cheating..
But damn. Were we already doing what everybody else is doing now on social media? Painting a picture of our life thatâs not complete? Only showing the good parts..
Is there.. something else in all of us that drives us to this insanity..?
