Many see the movie Matrix, and it's about determinism and indeterminism, about destiny and free will, others see it and it's about materialism and immaterialism, about the visible and the invisible, others see it and it's about the oppressive system current and about liberation, others about capitalism and socialism, others about many other things. For some it's just an action movie. Do you know what this means? That the meaning of the film is not in the film itself, but in the mind of the one who sees it.

Things don't have a meaning, people give it to them. You and I may be having the same conversation now, and we may be interpreting things very differently.

The meaning of things, the answer to all the questions, are not found in a book, or in someone's mouth, they are in the interpretation of things, they are in ourselves. Sometimes I find answers in places where I was not looking for them. And that is because we are the ones who develop them.

Sometimes I read something and I think it's just nonsense. But years later I read the same again and it has a different meaning, and it becomes an answer. Because the answer is not in a text, but in us and it is what gives it meaning.

Socrates said that we are the ones who must develop our own ideas, and this is so because if we look for them in others, or in something external to us, we will lose that capacity of natural interpretation that enables us to get an answer to things.

The answers to those questions that you ask, are not in me, I don't have the answers, but I am sure that you will have one, because you have been developing your own answers.
