Aliens Are Real

“Imagine that you spent the day with yourself. Really, exactly who you are right now, but in a different set of flesh and bones. What would it be like? What would you talk about? Would you be spending the day with a complete stranger, acquaintance, or a dear friend of yours?”

We glamorize moving as fast as possible through life. We often emphasize that we must find our soul mate, our career, a house and pet and achieve everything as soon as possible. That everything must be in order. Everything must be perfectly put together right now. But where would the journey be in that? The beauty of the process? The anticipation of this current moment as it leads onto the next? It would be absent. If we were to achieve absolutely everything right now in life, how much excitement would be left? Where would we move next?

ancient writers and historians: cleopatra wasn’t especially beautiful, caesar and antony were attracted to her because she was so charismatic and intelligent
