Hello, you’ve probably never heard of me before, but you made me. Very long ago you did something very special and because of that I’m here today. I don’t know exactly what you did. Science says it was the Big Bang, christians day it was god. I don’t think I believe in god.
But you did something that made so much. Or maybe something happened that made you, then you made me. I’m unsure. Maybe you just popped into existence, although that doesn’t sound very scientific. I really like science.
I like space, physics, chemistry, fire. You made that. I like how space looks. I like how it sounds, or rather doesn’t sound. I like how things fall. How they can be pushed. I like how things react. And I like how they can not. I really like fire because it brings new life with it. Did you know that the Australian aboriginals used fire to tame and regrow the land?
You are so incredible. So big. I like to imagine the universe first as a 2 dimensional shape. Like a huge squiggly blob. All round and natural and stuff. Then I can put into the 3rd dimension. Like extending that shape up and down and rounding it all out.
I know it’s probably nothing like that.
I think a lot of things. My mother says I have an overactive mind. I imagine it as one of two ways. Way one is like a store that just sells radios. The whole store is chocked full of them, but these aren’t ordinary radios. Each radio plays every radio station at the same time, and none of them are in sync.
Way two runs off the train of thought idea. But I don’t think I have just one train of thought. It’s more like a massive train station, in which hundreds of passengers, or thoughts, board every second. The trains run directly up to my brain where they get processed into mostly inteligabe thoughts.
My science teacher says it’s kind of like that.
With all the nerves firing to create a thought. Maybe my nerves are really sensitive, or overactive.
But im just a human, I can’t imagine what it’s like inside your brain. Do you have a brain? Do you even think? Is there even a you?
