Cogito ergo sum

If someone asks me: what is truth, what is truth, what is truth;
if I have hesitated, hesitated, and considered before,
then after watching this film, I will have enough courage to answer - what exists is real.
But how do you know, how can you be sure, how can you be sure that all this exists, not imagined?
Because "I think therefore I am".
Because I feel what I can feel, I think, I grow, I sublime.
If it is said that the world does not matter whether it is true or not, the truth does not exist in the world, and the universe does not matter the truth, the inner world of each of us is the so-called truth.
Everyone has two worlds: the inner world and the real world: the subjective world and the objective world.
If you must explore whether the real world is real, let alone spend your whole life, you may not be able to find the answer even for generations. Maybe the result is as hopeless as this propaganda poster of the movie - it turns out that our earth is an undeveloped remote village in the Milky Way; it turns out that we earthlings are the simulated experimental samples of intelligent life forms in outer space; it turns out. . . . .
There are only two outcomes to finding the truth: death and rebirth. I can't help but think of "2001: A Space Odyssey"
hoping that everyone who sees this film can be reborn, re-examine their own lives, and re-cherish everything around them, whether they really exist or not.
