Do you ever have a feeling that you're at a point where your life might diverge into a way that you hadn't yet imagined? Cause I'm feeling that way right now. I feel apprehensive and excited, but also a little scared. It's easy to feel brave when life looks like how you're planning it... but these surprises can pop out from anywhere!
It's interesting, because if you believe in the mysteries of quantum physics, then you have to consider the possibility that our infinite universe, always expanding, contains different worlds where these small little divergences occur. It's like this tree, where there's all these root systems, but the history goes back to one single trunk of the universe coming into existence. Sometimes I can sit in a chair and ponder this for hours.
The problem with thinking about these divergences? As I'm recognizing these different opportunities, I need to give serious thought to how I want my future to look. It's like the quote from Alice in Wonderland (one of my favorite quotes in literature, in fact):
"Would you tell me please, which way I go from here?" asked Alice.
"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to." Said the Cat.
So, where do I want to get to? I'm not sure. I'm doing a lot of thinking , and I think I need to call my mom. She brought me into this world, I think talking to her might help me better determine where I want to go.
