The Curtain

Today I was having a conversation with my friend and boss as we drove by the lake. I was taking pictures with my phone of the choppy waters, and the conversation led to Kodak. I said, can you imagine if Kodak would have gotten into digital earlier, they would still be a powerhouse like Samsung, or some other digital camera company. We continued our conversation as we went around the bend away from the beautiful Lake Ontario. He said, "Film is making a comeback." at which I thought that maybe. I then made a comment about vinyl records making a come back. I said there is an audience for the old film. It has a quality about it that digital doesn't. I went further to comment on the way we see digital vs. the old film movies. I said that seeing digital is like seeing a million small little lights that show up as an image, vs. light passing through the film and being projected on a screen. This led me to think about the reality of our lives.

I believe that what we see is an shadow of something greater. What we are looking at in the physical realm is an image that is projected out of something amazing that we don't quit understand yet. I heard a man say that what we see is really a hologram. We are light, and everything around us is light.

I have given this a lot of thought in my life. Many people have, and have come up with their own conclusions. Many have watched the movie The Matrix. I often hear people use this term - matrix - to describe life. I am one who believes we live in a matrix of sorts...not necessarily like the movie, but a lot like the movie.
