Singled Out

Well, it's been a while since my last entry, but I've been rather busy lately... But don't dispair, I'm still here, and I'll try to share my thoughts with you on regular bases. This time, I'll share one of my theories on life. Yup, life itself.

On a dark an stormy night some years ago, I started thinking about what our purpose on this planet is, what the purpose of life is. Several thoughts crossed my mind, but one in particular grasped my full attention: Could it be possible that I'm the only one on this planet, and all the others, my entire life is just a hallucination, just my mind playing tricks on me?

Picture this: Everyone you love, everyone you know, is just a mindtrick. Your whole life is one big hallucination. Kinda like the Matrix, but then without the millions of others plugged into it. Or are there other human beings that are experiencing the same hallucinations? And are our fake "lifes" interconnected, or do we all "live" seperate lifes?

Then I started thinking deeper about it. Could it be possible to alter the course of my "life"? If it is true, and I know it is all a big hallucination, wouldn't it be possible to change whatever I want to how I want it, just like in a lucid dream? Or is there some higher force that controls everything I'm "dreaming"? Am I wide awake, or fast asleep during this? And if I'm asleep, what is happening around me in the real world? These are all questions that get your mind going...

But if this were to be true, if this truly is a life-long hallucination from which I can't wake up, then me writing this down for you would just be a total waste of time, because you don't even exist. Kind of a depressing theory, ain't it?
