Multiple Lives

I will end my reflections on “virtual life” with the possibly scariest forecast of all: People – while living in a virtual world – will be able to assume more identities. In one “reality” a person can be a brother or a sister, in another a son or a daughter, in another a parent or a cousin… They can choose to be here a doctor and there a lawyer or...

Will this mean that we might lose our own identity, that we might end up not knowing who we really are? A psychiatrist says that it is highly possible.

In conclusion, will human beings reach a point where they will prefer to live in a custom-made world? Will they opt for a life with virtual families, friends, jobs? At this point, who will “work” and operate in the real world? Will there “be” a real world anymore? 
Amen.
