Blurred LinesToday we live in a world that keeps us on the run. There is a way to connect with anyone at any time. There is no such thing as "running away" because we have created a society of people who want to be found. But it is also through this technology, the same one that keeps us connected to the outside world, that we can get lost. The simplest video game can help a person escape into a different reality, spending whole hours in front of a computer screen, without looking for anything in particular on e-bay. This makes us lose. We immerse ourselves in things that have nothing to do with our daily lives because we have had enough, our life is too much to handle. So we focus on AIM, or video games, on anything that can take us out of our life and into something better. But then where do we draw the line? When does it become okay to spend an entire day on the computer because life is too stressful? Or, worse yet, when the life we ​​lead to escape becomes our everyday life. We lie about our lives and talk about events that didn't actually happen. Things that happened during our mental breaks become reality. These lies must then proceed and grow, because we do not want to be exposed. This can't happen because it would add more stress, but what we don't realize is that by perpetuating lies we become more and more stressed. Exactly why we needed to escape has come full circle. In the comedy Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? the boundary between truth and illusion has almost disappeared. The reader no longer knows when the character is telling the truth or embellishing a lie. Despite this, the character himself is still honest with his personality. George and Martha have a very tumultuous marriage. In some respects it is obvious that there is a deeply rooted love. The simple fact that they have been married for twenty-three years shows that, despite being in good spirits, there is love. What doesn't really fit with... middle of paper... is in our nature to find a simple solution to a problem. In many cases it is a means to escape and find something better. For these four characters, the illusions they used to escape the stress of normal life become their life. Instead of addressing problems with their spouses and getting what they want in life, they get confused with reality. It becomes a question: when is reality too much to handle? For these characters, reality was too much to handle when they got scared. At a time when their future was in danger or their reputation was on the line. This is no different than today's society. People are desperate for approval and will seek it by any means. Without the approval of others we cease to exist or be happy. And for many, fulfillment is also something that must be achieved. But for these four characters, fulfillment came only at the expense of others. Their happiness depended on the illusions they invented. These illusions, the ones that simply helped them escape reality and be happy, have become their reality. Lies became truths and truths were no longer evident. Their reality was too much for anyone to handle.
