Do You Have An Antivirus App and Firewall Installed in Your Life?

Don't you think that your body is more or less like an internet enabled computer and your belief system is the operating platform? Well, I think so and, could find at least one striking similarity between computers and humans: both get hacked!

Just like computer hackers, in real life also there are hackers who take control over your life. Life-hacker, as I call them, are essentially not your enemies but they do more harm to you. Unlike computer hackers, life-hackers are people who belong to your innermost circle within your area of influence and know you ins-and-out.

If you already have an antivirus application and firewall installed in your life, preventing unwanted external intrusions, you are safe to a good extent; if not, you are likely to stop living your own life, as others would take control over your life and make you do what they want you to.

Even if, at some point in time, you realize that your life has been hijacked, unfortunately, beyond a certain point in time, as it happens in case of computers, even the strongest antivirus fail to cleanse life operating system.

So, realizing, that life-virus has completely corrupted your key applications, forcing you dance in tune with those hackers, you decide to ahead with the idea of formatting your life.

However, in case of computer, formatting, bringing your computer back to factory condition, may solve your problem despite you losing all datas saved in the hard-disk.But, in real life, formatting means, destroying a few relationships pertaining to those life-hackers who are your near and dear ones.

So, the million dollar question is: would you prefer to remain hacked for saving those relationships, or format your life to drive them out of controlling your life?
