While reading this poem I hope the reboot is not a brainwash.

Hi Neeraj,
Thank you for your comments.
In fact I was aiming for the reboot to reverse a brainwashed mind or a mind that has imprints and impressions which don’t allow it to make unconditional judgements.

Dear Sonya,
Thank you for such an insightful poem. I understand that rebooting fixing many issues with a computer. With that said, perhaps there is a rebooting for humans. But are we willing to do it?
All good wishes,
robert
