Logic Gates in Real Life?

Can real life be analogous to a logic gate? On/off, true/false, 1/0, high/low, yes/no? Can our life be dictated by just 2 clear cases? Never, as we live in a complicated world where everything is analog instead of digital.

An analog world is just like what's shown on an oscilloscope. Nothing is clearly defined, approximations and assumptions have to be made in order to extract useful information out of it. But life is not as simple as reading data from the screen. For one basic reason, a life is alive, an oscilloscope is dead.

Human are often trapped in the maze of dilemma, and seldom can they walk out of the maze. They will walk in circles within the maze, for they can't make a simple decision of which route to take. If only they can take out the heart, and use only the brain. but if they do so, they don't fit into the group of powerful mammals, human.

Follow your heart. A famous phrase said by many. I would say it will bring you deeper into the maze most of the time. The best result will be having your heart bring you out of the maze.
