~This is not about orgazms, so if you have come for this reason, you may leave now~
I have more thoughts on the “fake” issues. From a comment:
“ …When Drunk and when wearing a MASK ....every human speaks the truth…”
I agree with the quote. In fact, I even had it as my entry’s footer message. The thing that bothers me – the concept of the truth in cyber world. We only know the person by what they tell us about themselves. And essentially we are prepared to take it on trust. Or we are not prepared. That’s how we choose our acquaintances . Not judging by the level of the truth they’ve told, but by the level of our readiness to take it as a truth.
Who should we blame if then we discovered the information was false? And who gives us the right to influence their reasons for hiding behind the mask? Aren’t we all supposed to take responsibility for our own action? If someone chooses to be other then they are somewhere else, why should this bother us? As long as they are there for us, everything else is just our mind’s build up. True, cyberworld is littered with broken hearts and uncompleted dreams. But when we take on courage to get involved into deep spiritual connection, we essentially put ourselves at risk, PERFECTLY AWARE of that. Cyber friendship can give a lot in a sense that it can enrich us to the extend we never knew exist, yet all the same it is not the same as the real life one, when in the times of insecurity you could seek assurance in person’s eyes.
I’ve been thinking…why would we treat cyber relationships the same way as the real life ones? In real world there are so many obstacles to the spiritual connection: the time, the place, the daily living routines, but we do have real life friends, partners, families, we choose them ourselves …However there is little opportunity to catch each other for the spiritual sharing. In the cyber world we have this rare chance of finding the missing link. Why would we want to waste time on something so irrelevant to the connection itself? The real life part of the other shouldn’t really bother us that much if we have deep and meaningful connection on another level. The two sides should compliment one another, not be a reason of confrontation. And when they become the one, really we should ask ourselves: what did we expect from this particular relationship? I think, the successful virtual relationship is the one, when all the expectations have been defined and clearly announced from the start.
Oh bother! And I know I’m preaching something I can never manage myself. But at least I’m the first one willing to be converted into this religion…
