Is it rigid, fixed, immutable? Or flexible?

  • Never is the same as forever.
    Or at least they last the same.

    I think eternal/never-ending/infinite/immortal are all very difficult to grasp. What we are familiar with...beginning/middle/end. Life cycles. Literature. Music. Relationships. Jobs. Whatevers. How do you actually grasp what ALWAYS means? What is at the edge of a universe? Another universe and another and another? What happened before The Big Bang? Was there nothingness that became somethingness? How is it possible that something is borne of nothing? If you have answers for me please share them because my mind has limitations and I'm always looking for ways to stretch it. Thank you for your reply Lago! :) This post was edited by RosieG at March 14, 2017 4:30 AM MDT

  • I think we have bought into this commercialization of the concept of being unique, and special. So we sorta explain everything around us as it relates to us as humans and unique.
    Look how everything is so well tuned just so humans can survive. They say.
    That's like saying, to me, look at how smart God was for placing the ears on the side of the head. He already knew about glasses. Or something like that....
    Maybe the big bang was not such a unique event, and it was one of many...
    Something like when you make popcorn...you know?
    Never, if you think about it, is the same as forever.
    It means that from now on, this thing is not going to happen again forever. 
    Yeah?
