So on the morning jog today, I had three epiphanies.
One; wouldn't it be the cruelest joke if every living creature were all actually me, from before or after this life? If you really think about it, it's not impossible. If 孟婆湯 doesn't just reset your memories but also messes with the timeline (well it's not impossible), it's actually a very legitimate hypothesis. Also, Judgement Day will make so much more sense in this way. That day is when you realize everyone you knew, have heard of, will know about, are all in fact... you. Just from before or after this. You, and I, have been or will one day be... I don't know, who comes to your mind first? Hitler? Every Nazi ever alive? John Wayne Gacy? Simone Beauvoir? and Justin Bieber perhaps? (And the fans who fought over in his concert.) And the trees, too? But you wouldn't really know if you were actually once a tree, right? It's not that you could feel much being a tree, let alone remember it.
Two; eight years ago today, I reported to office and embarked on that fantastic, gruesome adventure that is my career. I realized this by checking the date since I saw some farmers selling fresh vegetable near the park this morning. They had some mean looking garlic and bitter melon. It's Thursday near 8 in the morning. So next time if I am to cook something from fresh greens I might as well check that out. Very convenient, to say the least.
Three; so this actually goes back to this midnight. I overcame a video about Backstreet Boys concert incident. Apparently a fan fainted(or had some conditions) at their live concert and the boys halted the performance to see that she was taken care of. That's nice, I thought, then I checked the comment session (compulsorily). And there were A LOT of comments about Travis, about how he was showing everyone how NOT to handle a concert emergency incident. So I just had to check that up, and saw that some eight people actually died from a Travis concert. And I was very concerned. Because I just recommended a Travis song to one of my esteemed supervisor who just had a baby very recently. So that was very worrying. Then I realized that Travis is in fact a rapper. The song I recommended was My Eyes, by THE Travis. Yeah, mind-blowing. Never know a "the" would make such a difference. Mind blown. In the good way.
