Greetings, fellow beings.
So who am I? Honestly, I don't know. But I will try to answer that question to the best of my ability. I am made of packet upon packet of data streaming from 66.159.239.150 to server after server after router after router in the form of electrons and light. Now, these packets stream into your the networking card into your computer and jumps from microprocessor to microprocessor and bus after bus until it is displayed upon the screens as a bunch of well organized pixels, which are perceived by the human cornea, and inverted twice before entering your brain as electronic signals that cause the average human to think: "omgwtfsuchatypicalaznnerdgeeklikeew.." or maybe "huh?"
So who am I really? I don't know. I can be a ninja or a trained assassin. I could be the reincarnation of Confucius. My spirit may lie in the minute molecules of snowflakes and raindrops or in the vastness of the cloudless summer sky. Or maybe within the flower petals of a little flower.
Right now, to your concern, I exist as 1s and 0s because "I" am only a bunch of well organized electrons. 1 and 0 by themselves is meaningless. But together we have created a whole new world, with endless possibilities and meanings - the Internet. In the end, the meaning of the universe is meaningless. And from nothing, there within lies everything. Within a bunch of meaningless protons and electrons lie the entire universe, along with life itself. And within 0s and 1s lie the entire cyberspace, an infinite amount of 0s and 1s taking the shape of billions of websites, blogs, opinions, trillions of dollars, ATMs, Bank accounts, and everything else that we take for granted.
So who am I? I am but 0 and 1.
