ALTERNATE REALITY (A 1-Man Play)

Alter Ego (AE): Just like what Venom said in that movie, "The way I see it, we can do whatever we want."

ME: I want and it's reasonable but I don't think I can do it.

AE: Are you a pussy or a pushover or simply trash?

ME: I'd do it if it'll help.

AE: Do it because that's the way it should be.

ME: I don't know if it's the right thing to do.

AE: You're overly righteous.

ME: But...I feel bad about myself.

AE: Because you're not doing what you're supposed to do.

ME: How do I face the consequences of my actions?

AE: Man up. Everything will turn for the best.

ME: Why did God put me in this situation?

AE: God created this multiverse and HE (as traditionally called; pardon the gender bias) can probably anticipate what's going to happen next but intervening 24/7 seems to be off his books. Look at what's happening around you.

ME: Free will.

AE: Exactly.

ME: I have to do something for Divine Intervention to take place.

AE: More like God gave you the right to do wrong to learn from it.

ME: Okay. But, I'd just like to tell my wife that at the first sign of extreme physical pain and I already resigned to it, I don't want to be revived anymore.

AE: The next life sounds better in paper.
