Yes I was thinking while sitting by myself.
And Now I see those thoughts of things past,
Is often so-very-much all quite daft –
For does the ‘Past’ even exist outside our minds?
Or if it does, do we go from Future to Present to Past? –
Maybe we all live our lives in reverse time order –
& to aid survival our brains reverse it yet again.
This would mean our “Future” is Set-in-stone
& Our lives are just a cacophony of different ways –
Different ways to always get to the same place.
Slowly but surely our memories & skills are wiped.
our common final resting place? – the unified consciousness
That sits outside time – ‘before’ the big bang.
At this point I guess we stop reversing,
& are happy just ‘being.’
For now we are no longer human beings.
