A message to the younger me

And I’m not even that old. Thank God I rediscovered thinking! Life is never going to be dull again!

I would say this: Life is full of choices. Every step is a choice. When you grow up and look back at that choice, would you like to have made the easy choice, or the “wait to see what story I have to tell you about this” choice?

It’s good that I discovered the “wait to see what story I have to tell you about this” choice. Some do this while younger than me and become rich and / or famous. Some never do and they die sad.

The best audience you could have for the old people stories are your family. Keep them always close.

Be egoistical. Do what is best for YOU!

Humanity is a giant DNA game!

There are a lot of money in the pharmaceutic industry right now. And I would guess also in food industry. Why? Because they are experimenting on us. All those chemicals that are in the food these days, it’s only to see which one generates a successful mutation. The byproduct of this experimentation is cancer, when the mutation fails. The successful ones remain unseen. If you think about it, Gattaca and X-Men are not that far-fetched. Which makes it really scary, to know that the X-Men can actually be the next step of evolution. What we need now is somebody to guide us towards the answer, someone to decode the code.

Computers are binary, humans are quaternary systems. Which begs my question: what is we are only a small particle in this infinite dimension that is the universe? What if we are only the “electrons” of somewhat greater we don’t even know exists and that (maybe) does not know we exist. In this case MIB makes sense. Maybe, following the theory behind The Pixar Theory, there are hidden messages and connections in all famous Hollywood movies. Would it be possible to follow those breadcrumbs and maybe reach a hidden story, a story within a story?

So, who wins the evolution game, one who waits, or one who cheats? I would like to be the one who cheats. The fact that nobody won the Human DNA decoding game is because they didn’t get the best programmers or, better, analysts. Decoding the DNA is not a medical problem, it is a hackathon. The problem is that, in order to analyse the final product, you need a lifetime of analysis. If you happen to be human, that is. If there are beings amongst us that are eternal and happen to be very good programmers, they can have a better chance of decoding Human DNA, because they observe a greater gene pool evolve over a longer period of time.

All that I know is that for me it would be fun to “hack” the human DNA if I had access to an infinite database of people, their DNA and their life stories. I think this would be the hack of this century, if I ever pulled this off!

What is science?

Science seems to be something infallible. But it is actually based on mere observation or experimentation. Using logic we have ways of inferring things that we don’t see, but that doesn’t necessarily make them true. They are some kind of incomplete deduction (even if the rules of logic say they are).

Logic is another thing that man probably “invented” so he can better explain things.

Even if we observe something a million times, once we stopped observing it, it may actually change. So does science hold the answer? To the questions we posed, yes. But there are still the ones we haven’t asked yet.

So, always let room in your life for the unexplained. Otherwise, life becomes boring.

What if all religions are right?

Read me out. What if all religions are right? What if all the religious books are actually true stories that have been altered by time? What if they are talking of actual beings, each having his / her own traits?

I come to wonder how all the different races came to be. Maybe they were all one at the beginning of time, then they split up because of natural human curiosity and they just adapted to the environment they lived in, they just evolved to survive their surroundings?

Sometimes I feel like I am on the board of  one of the coolest games ever: the game of life, of evolution. What if Earth is actually the playing ground of an alien race who made an experiment to see how their world came to be?

There are a lot of questions, all without answers. All I say is, don’t choose only one answer, but explore them all. Otherwise you will be missing out on actual life.

Also, be aware that all the “proof” we have right now is mere speculation, based on our interpretation of what we observe around us.

There is no one truth, there are many.
