What if the worlde were mayde of thicke starres?

Hello and welcome to my online journal. I've been sent here by a daimon to write what thoughts I might be having at any particular moment of the day, though I evade the task when I can.

Moments

When I turn on a light switch and the bulb zaps out and dies forever, I wonder: if I had waited a few seconds before turning it on, or if I had done it a few seconds earlier, or if I had turned the switch more slowly, would it perhaps not have happened like that?

But.... couldn't this be asked of any consequence in our lives?

A great, well-drawn analogy.

The most enormous topics in life could be reduced to the 'littlest' things.

Jackie, try switching it on again. No, it doesn't work? Well, if you'd tried it 11 seconds earlier or 17 seconds later, it would have!

I resent (Q). The academy is a way to support tendencies to marinate in intellectual juices. Something you seem to like.
