i view life as a series of vectors coming off like branches. life is like climbing a tree but without the ability to look up.
you can always see what you have climbed up, but you cant see where your going.
and at each offshoot you have an option of which way to go without knowing which way will take you to where you want to go. most branches lead you to the same place, but some lead you in a direction you wish you hadn't gone. some branches end soon, like life, and some go on to the top of the tree, which takes you longer to climb, which gives you more time to live.
