Life is Like a Computer

 Life is Like a Computer

            A single computer involves lots of processes before it was formed. Before, computers were made by simple materials unlike the modern ones which were formed by complex materials. As days, weeks, months and years pass, computers became better and better. Like life, it contains or consists of several processes before it reaches its ultimate goal. These goals include happiness, completion, and the achievement of dreams. Also, there are stages that we need to undergo to achieve those goals, just like a computer. Infancy, childhood, adolescence, and adulthood: are the stages that we need to go through to fulfill those goals in life. In infancy, we were born with an innocence that makes us capable of developing one self into childhood. In childhood, we slowly start to understand the things around us. As we play with others, we develop ourselves and further explore the real world. Similarly, we need to explore the programs in the computer so that we will be used to it, adapt and utilize it to our means. In adolescence, we start to become mature. In this stage we become mature because of the environment where we belong and also because of the challenges we are facing. Lastly, in adulthood we are able now to solve problems with the help of the people surrounding us. Like a computer, with the right programs and accessories, can solve its problems on its own and sometimes with the aid of human intervention. However, life would not be that perfect without the presence of problems and challenges as well. To a computer, these problems or challenges are called viruses. For us to be able to remove those viruses we need to get help from anti-virus programs. In life we seek help from our love ones and friends as well.

            From the things mentioned above, can we really say that life is like a computer? For me, yes. We are shaped and fashioned by life, just as a computer is shaped and fashioned by its programs and users also. There are some differences, but a lot of similarities between the two. However, still, we can really say that life is like a computer.
