The lightness indeed...

Thu Dec 24, 2009, 10:02 PM
In regards to life. The occurrences that arise within in this cesspool of consciousness known as life has such an intense rate of variability it is safe to conclude it only happens once - simply put their are so many alternatives that "you" existing twice is highly improbable. We can conclude that whatever exists only once may as well never have existed at all. Life is insignificant.

OR

We can conclude that because it only happens once, because it ends, because it does not go on ad infinitum it is meaningful. Whatever is fleeting, whatever may be easily crushed or blown away in a faint breeze, whatever only happens once - that is what we cherish. If I were immortal nothing would be meaningful - but nothing is immortal. Entropy is the only constant, therefore since everything will end and in a scale of infinity all time is fleeting - everything is meaningful. And beautiful.

I am 8332 Days Old

Tue Jul 14, 2009, 7:27 AM
I am 8332 Days Old - on average I have slept for 2777 of those days - According to the USDA I have spent 482.6 eating, shopping or preparing to eat. I have spent approximately 173.6 days taking care of personal hygiene, give or take. This has left me with 4898.8 days. According to Malcolm Gladwell's research in Outliers in order to be a master at any given activity you need to invest 10,000 hours into it. That means I've had enough time to master nearly a dozen things in my lifetime(assuming I amass no unfruitful obligations). Tomorrow I'll be 8333 days old, maybe I'll start then.
