I like how you think and it's mysterious - we don't know what happens when we take the purple pill and I like that.

thank you very much.

Taken both, eh? I'd have gone for the yellow. ;-) I loved this, it can be taken in many ways.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Thank you so much :))

an interesting choice...hmm..give me both... so I can get purple..my fave color

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Thank you Fran.

That's very wise, Two pills are better than one. Three are better, and four are better still, depending on how much you can persuade the doctor to perscribe.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Thank you so much Marie

Clever little poem :) I liked how you mixed the two colors together and took both.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Thank you so much… still waiting to see who knows what I am really saying :)

Well I see only challenges here the first one I am not sure if this is a reference to the movie which is loosely inspired by Buddhism if it where as such the I wouldn't think about it as the premise would be the acceptance of suffering not taking pills. Then I jumped into maybe thinking outside societal norms as a political environment damn it!! I am a dissident. Obviously not a methematical matrix . Oh sod it!! my favorite color is blue. And I will have hat with a whiskey chaser please.

Thankyou for sharing Cowboy highly entertaining

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Actually I believe the movie is based on Christianity where Neo was the new Christ.
But thank you for sharing your insight.

Well, bot brothers have written extensively about their intentions behind the concept of the movie -- they wanted to portray elements of buddhism -- as per the writing the reader will take what they must. Thanks for getting back to me on that one...

There may be no pill to free one’s self from the most outer Matrix to get to the highest dimension of Reality if there are an infinite number of cascading levels of inner Matrices. One may only be jumping from an arbitrary inner Matrix to another inner Matrix that’s one level up where the illusion of Ultimate Reality is still manifest. To look down from the highest dimension is to simultaneously see everything through all time. I would have written the movie Matrix in an entirely different way. Reality is never what it seems to be. I’d take the rainbow pill that contains every shade of color. The only thing that we’re certain of is how we feel from moment to moment as we ride through this world, this strange funhouse of scary illusions where our spunky little colorful karmic amusement park cars take us. Have fun!

Thank you for such an indepth review.

[Aethereal]

You're welcome! Purple people are of the highest rank, royal people belonging to the Top Matrix; but the Top Matrix is still a matrix, and not Reality. Perhaps there’s no such thing as Absolute Reality just as clay may take on any of an infinite number of forms (Realities). We adapt to the deck of cards that we’re dealt (ephemeral reality) at the beginning of each game (lifetime).

I like to mix & match...clever one Dale.
