Journal #3 virtual Reality

To live in a virtual reality or to not live in a virtual reality has been a intriguing question that has popped up over the course of humanity especially with all the advancements in recent technology. The real question is do you sacrifice everyone else’s emotions for your own reality where there are no problems or do you live the life that nature has presented itself to you? Personally I would choose not to live in a virtual reality simply because it is virtual and not real, and all of your emotions and actions are all artificial. With this being said I would much rather feel what living life has to offer me and going through everything life has to offer me.

Living in a virtual reality would be nice for a while but it would come with an ultimate price that not everyone would happily accept and that is leaving everything behind for a fake and artificial version of it. Yes you would still be able to appreciate the things you would like to, but people in the real world would miss you and what you have to offer. What is the point in experiencing things if you truly haven’t experienced them? For example falling in love with another person. Yes your emotions would be genuine but  your lovers emotions wouldn’t be true and real, essentially it would just be you loving yourself since you’re in an artificial world solely feeling your own emotions. Feeling other people’s emotions are a part of the life experience and what it has to offer.
