stoned epiphany XII

The playlist of our lives.

On destiny I:

What if destiny is nothing but a blind and dull ping-pong game between "past" and "present"? Let's imagine, for one minute, life as a mp3 playlist:

1. Its duration depends on how long you want it to be. If you cannot actually choose how or when it will end, maybe it's because your playlist capacity is limited.

2. "Free will" would be understood as the amount of choice you have to select your mp3s (i.e. decissions in life). Whether you'll end up having an interesting existence or a lame passage on Earth is ultimately your fault: you cannot blame the rest because they have better tastes on music than you do.

3. What we call History is viewable here as the option some media players like Windows Media Player 10 - have of a playlist history when using the random reproduction mode: you can check the last songs you've played, as well as the ones coming ahead, but no further than a certain point, because the list starts all over again.

Jackson Pollock & Lee Krasner

I ever really fall in love, I would like a productive partner that not only would care about me but also would help me to maximize my goals in life: my talents, my visions. What am I willing to give back? Probably the same thing or just maybe faithfulness, what the hell...
