Like a cave with shadows dancing on the wall. 🫧 

Last time I was having a thoughtful soak, I had a realization. It was that Plato’s cave allegory fits so much more perfectly than it ever had before ontop of our experiences on the internet. It’s been a handy reminder that what we see here is very much just a shadow of the shape of what reality really is like. Augmented by the fire and the ones who hold the means to transmit the information. It’s comforting to me in a way. I can still enjoy the show but know to crawl out of the cave now and then to feel what the truth of where I am really is like. xx Theia
