We are the Virus, Love is the Cure

I have read theories about life in my life, like we were created by a god, that we are products of time and evolution, that we live in some sort of program like the matrix, or we are a 3D hologram projected on a 2D plane (I have NO idea what that last theory means, anyways).

I have developed an extension to the Matrix theory.


What if the universe was a program, and humans were also a program...but humans were not the same program! Like in the movie, the Matrix, we are a virus! We were hacked onto a line of code (Earth) We are supposed to destroy the Earth and the entire universe! This is what we were programmed to do. But, if we were supposed to destroy the Earth, why are we trying to save it? Are we not coded correctly? It there an anti-virus among us who is trying to save the program? Is the anti-virus attacking the virus by giving it free-will, dreams, the want to be kind, a program that gives us pride to to the exact opposite of what we were supposed to do? Happiness? Self awareness? The anti-virus of the program we have invaded gives us life! It gives us goals other than destruction. 


Without the anti-virus, we are simply the “Id” in the three part family of the “ego” and the “super ego”. This anti-virus has decided not to kill us, but to give us life! That's very kind of you anti-virus, thank you very much! Even if it may only be an illusion of choice, to feel happy or sad...but maybe none of these have ever existed. Maybe it's just an illusion because that's exactly what it is...just an illusion. Without the illusion, there is no real happiness or sadness. The illusion is the closest we can get to an non-existent reality.
Even if it is all an illusion, it's better than the alternative, to never experience anything in the first place. So I think you, anti-virus, for everything you have given me. Thank you for letting us appreciate cold ice cream on those hot summer days, or our first kiss under the green sun.




There must be one person who is not happy, the guy who tried to hack the program! Maybe he is in his basement, trying to program another virus! Will he succeed in his next attack? What are his motivations? Pleasure? Revenge? I have no idea! :D
