The Red Pill or the Blue Pill?

There was a scene from the movie Matrix where in, Morpheus gave Neo a choice between the Blue pill which will make you forget what happened and go on living a Normal which is a lie, from a Red pill which, offer you a not so pretty sight of life but it's reality.. sometimes hust thinking about it,I am having a dilemma which pill to choose?.. if you where Neo which would you choose and of course WHY? there's got to be a reason behind it..

I'll choose the red pill bro, the red pill does not just give you freedom it gives you the reality of life and how to conquer it. Whilst the blue pill maybe tempting to choose because of the simple lie it can bring, you will still be imprisoned by the lie which you thought was the truth. And lies shall always be the same.

Blue pill. I like my happy little life. If it is a lie, I really do not want to know. Did you notice that not everyone on the matrix got that choice. It was only people who were already questioning the status quo.

Actually yes, keen observations. at one point i was considering the blue pill as well, coz if reality goes along side by side with a very bad picture., i'd glady be imprisoned for life.. But again it's not freedom..

I am pretty sure that the most part of the people would chose to go and know all the true, it is in the human being to be curios and aways look for the true and for adventure. My chose was to go and know the true, if I had this opportunity I would not let it go. thank you so much have a nice day.

i was just puzzled sometimes about others choosing the blue pill intentionally. though i know where they are coming from.. it's like risking their comfort zones, and i'm sure many of us twists our belief and principles, and rather thinks differently when our comfort zones is at stake.

I would choose the Red Pill. Reality is messy and sticky and hard to get along with, but it's the reality. It's the truth. I pursue truth and I would hate myself in that one moment I chose the Blue Pill. Once you accept reality, you can change it.

i agree,the truth is freedom.. it's all there is indeed,.. but having to choose between something beautiful and something messy,, is quite an easy choice for most of us, im confused.

Wait, haha, what are you confused about? Having to choose something beautiful vs. something messy or reality being an easy choice? (I don't think it would be an easy choice, though. But I think it's more like I would just HAVE to choose it. Something inside me would just not let me take that Blue Pill).

I will definitely choose the Red Pill though I must admit that it is really tempting to choose the Blue Pill. It is better to live in reality, not always experience or encounter good things but still we can make the most of it.

yes but what if reality is totally different from what you knew while you're growing up, would you still consider the red pill?. what if reality is just like the scene from the movie?
