To start to live life you need to find out how to unplug yourself. This will be lonely and you will have to learn a whole new way of being but it will be worth it. The world outside the Matrix is a fabulous place. It is inhabited by children, autistics and other neuro diverse individuals, eccentrics, the enlightened who have emancipated themselves, self employed and digital nomads. These are spread throughout the world so although it seems like many, there are likely to be only a few near you. They are increasing though with the current attitudes towards climate change, vegetarianism, sexual and gender identity as well as dress and nationality.
If you need help and encouragement to understand this watch the first 3 parts of the Matrix and look forward to the next instalment coming next year. It will be interesting to see how the fact the Wachowskis are both now women alters the storyline. Along with the progress that has happened in technology in the past 20 years. I’m extremely excited to see what they come up with as it’s my favourite movie that I gain something new from each time I watch it.

I love The Matrix too, the first movie much more than the sequels.
I’m curious about what you mean by your suggestion that we unplug ourselves. Do you mean we should stop using The Internet? Certainly some people do advocate doing this for a short period to better see how the online world affects us.
Wishing you well.

First of all Thankyou for your comment and what I mean by unplug is that occasionally we need to escape the modern world and all that comes with it. Get back to nature. Do things that don’t involve a screen or electricity. Spend time with people. Greece is very good for this I find along with many other countries that I have visited.

Ahh, thank you. That makes a lot of sense. Nature, sunshine… and the laid-back Greek way of life! Lovely!
