Date and Time

Weird deep thoughts tonight..

I don't understand how people so often get rattled by the truism "if something is meant to be, it will." Think about it, it is a fool-proof, somewhat cop-out of a statement for validation. If time is perceived as linear, we are currently on a certain notch of our visualized timeline right now. I'm in between my 19th and 20th notch, each notch symbolizing how many years I've "lived" (the socially-adapted definition of the world 'lived' of course). That means that the timeline is perceivable by NO mortal forces, yet can still be perceived. We just don't get to see the full timeline until we die. We can jump back notches on the timeline by visiting our memory's database. Whether we can jump forward in time is inconclusive, though... The argument to BEING able to move forward through time is the extraordinary sensation of 'deja vu.' At times we feel as though we have lived a certain moment before, and maybe we have... we'll never know how to distinguish the sensation with something like virtualization or our mind reenacting pieces of various settings and conflicts that have taken place over the length of our prior lives. But, like all you women quote on Twitter, if something is meant to happen it DOES. I work at Target. Therefore, I was meant to work there. I was meant to interact with elderly women who come through my check-out line, I was meant to bring in carts, I was even meant to clean human shit off the floor.

Think about all of the places in the world you could be living in right now...

What if your parents didn't decide to fuck on that Valentine's day, they waited until Christmas instead. You were born in a different year, and were put in a different grade level for school. You made friends with a different group, you dated a different girl, you landed a different job. It's hard to NOT believe that here is the existence of multiple other spectrums in time in which all the possible scenarios that YOU have gone through, have been altered a little bit. Every single decision you have made has put you in the place you were at. Any small decision, even to drink Orange Juice three minutes later than you did on September 10th, 2005, would change you somehow. It would change the way the Earth and it's people coexisted.

I'm happy where I'm at, but also aware of where I could be.

Sorry for the cryptic ass post.
