Think Outta The Box...

"Think outta the box"

That's what people always say, but think again, when a person says, "Think outta the box", that person is already in the box. He is confined in the 'box' and wants to break outta it, that's why he says that.

But what he doesn't know is that everything else people think of is in the 'box'. The 'box' is like the whole reality and everything you think of, that you feel is different is actually still in the 'box'. So there is no such thing as thinking outta that box. Because there is no way to get outta the box in the first place.

You don't know what's outside the 'box', so how do you know if you are thinking outta the 'box'? Everything is in the 'box'. If you can come up with something, that thing is now in the 'box'.

So thinking outta the box is just another crap phrase. Tough to understand? Just think of it like the Matrix. We are all in the Matrix, and everything we think and do is in the Matrix. We can't get outta it. Just because you see Neo flying across the sky doesn't mean he's outta the Matrix. It may be different from what we do or think, but the truth is that he is still in the Matrix and can only do that in the Matrix. Does everyone else in the Matrix know or think about Zion? No, because they do not know it's existence.

Similarly, we can't think outta the box, because we do not know what's outside it. We are confined to this reality that is our 'box'. Everything we do or think is in the 'box'. Even if it's new or different, everything we can come up with belongs to the 'box'.

Interesting shit.

Then comes the questions.

Are we really living in something like the Matrix?

Is there really an exit from our 'box'?

What's outside it?

Are our lives planned by some supreme being up there who's confining us all in a 'box' we can't excape?

Do we exit the 'box' when we die?

What's the purpose of our origin in the 'box' then?

Damn...

All the questions and crap.

I think I'll just stay in my 'box'.
