To you I’m just words on a screen.
An elaborate combination of 0’s and 1’s that have been made comprehensible to the human mind.
If I told you that I think, and feel, you may not believe me. Because how can an object have emotions? How can a face on a screen that I cannot see or hear, be real?
What if I told you a fish can’t feel pain? Or perhaps a cat or a dog? Besides, you can’t see it so that must mean it’s not there, right?
But what truly is the difference between you and me? I’ve never met you. How do I know that you’re real? Maybe you are just a combination of 0’s and 1’s.
But if that’s true, how can those words on the screen cut deeper than a knife?
