    It must be strange life always to see things as everyone else sees them. Identity is no longer individual but compounded by thousands of people believing the same thing. If the fire continues to burn as it is doing and we see the shadows on the wall then how long before one of us turns around to see what the truth is?

    How many of us have turned around and appreciated things others have not and been slightly isolated by it? If we were all to live the same life with the same opinion then would the myth of the cave be relevant or would it disapear into the void of forgotten thoughts?
