On an empty page, the pencil traces the dotted line, the circle, the shape. 

From the movement of the pencil, a million universes appear, timelines splitting into their multiple component parts in a universe of endless possibility as millions more appear, each one a multiverse of possibilities as the pencil moves, tracing by movement, through which, across billions of possible environments, worlds, universes, colors, shapes, and relations.

Look up from the page and perhaps you may see the created universe – Breathe in and you may appreciate its harmonies, the unity of physical constraints, of physical laws interweaving to make existence possible. 

But is that universe truly greater? 

Look down at the once empty page, no longer so empty. I claim that if you look further, there you will see it:

Here lies the immortal beginning of every endeavor, the step not taken – a journey not yet made of a thousand miles as yet untraveled that you can begin, where you are, with a single stroke of your pen.

Here, then, is the possibility of a universe even greater and even more intricate than you may have ever known —

Whether you can reach that universe or not?

That is a separate question — and none but experience can teach you its answer.

Sorry for not writing.

A Change Of Mind

THERE ARE a few reasons that a person could want to make content – some people do it for the money, which is a very real aspect, some people do it for the fame and some for the validation (Tim Tiah’s position); I am a little bit different, though. I […]

Correcting Cambridge

Each person in this world has different things which they may want to remember as part of life’s journey. Certain conversations, a few interactions, small but varied and different things, each person to his own.  It’s probably no secret to most of you who are reading this at the moment […]

The Meek Shall Inherit The Earth

Of late, I’ve come to realize that I have a certain skillset that has made it not always easy to oppose what I do. I think most people would be aware of it, and it would be independently true regardless of whatever my opinion of it happens to be – […]
