The Chosen One (Part 2)



Morpheus was right when he believed that Neo was The Chosen One. For those who watched The Matrix, they know what I was talking about. However, before he began his journey to become The Chosen One, Neo had to choose between the red pill and the blue pill. One of the pills would make him stay inside the Matrix. The other would awake him and he would be out of the Matrix. As the story goes, we knew which pill he took.
Life is about making choices. Of course, to come out to this world is not our choice. So as to die. However, we may choose our way of life bearing in mind that action will lead to reaction. Each choice has its own consequence. Whether good or bad the choice we made depends on the results that follow.
In making choice, some people rely on their intellect, some use their instinct. Others, rely on revelation.
Therefore, if life is about making choice, what results awaiting us when we die? Should there be no heaven or hell, nothing will happen after that. That’s the end of us. Our flesh will be decomposed and we become part of the ecosystem. We will become a non-existence except for the fading memories that stay put in the mind of our beloved one. If we do good deed, people might remember it and felt indebted to us so long as they live. If we do bad, people might still remember it. Worse to worst, such deed will end up in criminal records which will disposed off after a period of time.
The question is, what if there is heaven and hell? Some choice will lead to heaven. Others, to hell. Action, reaction. Choice, consequence. Will we become The Chosen One? Will we be able to see through our walk of life? What is our choice? The blue pill or the red? (To be continued…)
