To Infinity And Beyond

 

As far as we know the universe is infinite.

Metaphorically powered by a pink Bunny pounding a drum. The universal icon of being permanently energized with endless stamina.

Oddly enough, physics teaches us that although the universe, as a whole, is indeed infinite, not a single iota of the quadrillions of it’s components are.

Which is a deep thought producing provocation.

I dislike provocations.

They awaken the philosophical tunnels of my mind.

Those dark corridors where quandaries abound and the mind juggles in it’s search for conclusive answers.

Me and my being bound by the gift of human curiousity and genetically implanted search for the meaning of life, have given myself virtual aneurysms in search for unanswerable answers.

I believe that the first ever question from the first ever human had to have been …

“Why?”

“Why can the universe, as a singular entity, exist for time evermore while the sum of it’s parts are designed with flawless individual degradations?”

All components of our existence deteriorate.

All have a birth and a death.

Life and death, the only two gaurantees the Universe assures us.

Galaxies are formed and immediately begin to degrade.

Comets soar through the universe at amazing speeds. Leaving a trail of their very selves in their wake. On a cosmic journey to their death.

Moons slowly escape their planets gravity. They too on a journey to their demise.

Millions of stars sprout brightly to life and immediately begin to dim.

And then theirs us ….

“the human race“.

Why do we refer to ourselves as a …..

“Race“?

Could it be that we are in a rush to attempt to understand and discover the meaning of life?

We will never understand why we are here until their comes a time where we understand our fellow man.

Where we have put violence, greed and jealousy out of our nature.

(So, yes, about that, I would not hold my breath. Will not be happening.)

How can we discover the meaning of life while we are recklessly living life?

Will there every be a time of human mankind where we are both “human” and “kind”?

As the Universe races to Infinity and Beyond, mankind can only dream of what the future holds in place for we runners in the Human Race.

“Jog on, Campers, jog on!”
