We're All Living in The Truman Show
Picture 1: Part of scene that he almost realized it was all being set up.
The Truman Show is a Science Fiction Comedy Film played by Jim Carrey. He's an ordinary insurance salesman who finally feels strange with everything around him. He observed the surroundings and find out that he's being set up in a loop, the things happen over and over again like a set in a movie. His entire life is a Tv Show and all the people around him are just actors. He decides to escape and sailing out of the city.
Imagine we're all living in The Truman Show, let's try to contemplate it. We all live in a simulation, nothing is real. We're being watched by a man named God who controls our every movement.
They talked about Fate. They Said our life is beyond our control, everything that will happen was written long before we were all born. It's called Determinism, when all the event occurs without our permission and it's usually inevitable. But where were we before we were conceived? Some religion believes there's Pre-Existence phase, The beforelife is a belief that each individual human soul existed before mortal conception and at some point before birth enters or is placed into the body. That's when God wrote every single detail about your life, even your death.
Ironically, if we can't pursue our dreams no matter how hard we tried, they said God has another plan for you. But have you ever think it's because God does not predestine you to be who you want to be. This Destiny/Fate/Determinism concept somehow confused me, so no matter how hard we try to change our lives we will still end up the same? The question is, are we the ones who responsible for making decisions? Or we're just live the way it's written down? Nobody actually knows.
