13/365 - Galactic Musings
I believe that a giant meteor will hit the Earth and kill us. Maybe not soon, maybe not for millennia, but we’ll all die. As a race. Everything we’ve done will be gone.
The universe will continue until it, too, will gutter like a match, heat leeching out of it until only gravity is left and it collapses in on itself with such force that it restarts.
I believe the exact same set of circumstances will start all over again and that will result in the same Earth being created and the same life populating it.
I think that those people will be able to dimly remember what happened in the last iteration of the universe. I believe this happens over and over again.
When you get a sense that maybe you should just stay in tonight, that’s your memory talking. When you meet someone and it feels like you already know them or when you get déjà vu or when you feel a pervasive feeling of wrongness, that’s your memory talking.
The event that kills us happens at the same moment in every version of the universe. No matter what we achieve or how much we accomplish, we haven’t yet been able to see our death coming or stop it.
In that very large way, we live in a consequence-free environment. No matter what happens here, it all ends at the same time for our race.
I think it’s important to try to do something different with your life. Do something you didn’t do last time.
That’s what my daughter is.
I am positive that she is new. In all my times before in this repeating universe, I never had a child.
I’m thrilled she’s here and I look forward to seeing how she progresses.
