    Why not let us know what you think by adding your own comment! Your opinion is as valid as anyone else's, so come on... let us know what you think.

      The question then is not about pills, but what they stand for in these circumstances. The question is asking us whether reality, truth, is worth pursuing. The blue pill will leave us as we are, in a life consisting of habit, of things we believe we know. We are comfortable, we do not need truth to live. The blue pill symbolises commuting to work every day, or brushing your teeth.

      The red pill is an unknown quantity. We are told that it can help us to find the truth. We don’t know what that truth is, or even that the pill will help us to find it. The red pill symbolises risk, doubt and questioning. In order to answer the question, you can gamble your whole life and world on a reality you have never experienced.

      I always take the RED PILL and wish sometimes I could be a person who takes the BLUE one

      Only one reply too this – take special note of the last verse

      White Rabbit – Jefferson Airplane
      One pill makes you larger
      And one pill makes you small
      And the ones that mother gives you
      Don’t do anything at all
      Go ask Alice
      When she’s ten feet tall

      And if you go chasing rabbits
      And you know you’re going to fall
      Tell ’em a hookah smoking caterpillar
      Has given you the call
      Recall Alice
      When she was just small

      When men on the chessboard
      Get up and tell you where to go
      And you’ve just had some kind of mushroom
      And your mind is moving slow
      Go ask Alice
      I think she’ll know

      When logic and proportion
      Have fallen sloppy dead
      And the White Knight is talking backwards
      And the Red Queen’s “off with her head!”
      Remember what the dormouse said;
      “FEED YOUR HEAD
      _______________
      FEED your head”
