I Work Better Under Pressure...Do You?

It's as if the universe has put us here for a reason.
That reason may benefit us, and it may not benefit us.
The universe seems to be giving us messages and signals and hints.
The universe may not really be giving us any messages or signals or hints.
The universe has, however, given us a sure fire deadline.
What we are supposed to do until then is undetermined.

Our deadline: The day that our precious sun will cease to give off heat and light and collapse in on itself.

I suppose we should be finding a way to inhabit other planets or galaxies or nebulae or things like that.
Maybe we should find a habitable planet and migrate there.
Maybe humans have already done this before but we just cannot remember.
Maybe that is the story on the mysterious Rosetta Stone. Of  how we, as creatures, came to exist and how we ever appeared on this little blue dot.
I think it would be best if humans didn't spend their time blogging (I'm not a hypocrite, I'm only pondering possibilities) and instead of simply pondering ideas, should test them and make something of their speculations.
I think I might be wrong.
I think there's no concrete way to tell what is wrong and what is right in this inexplicable bundle of energy we are in.
I think that there is definitely something beyond that horizon that we simply cannot reach.

This has been a post. A post about my thoughts. And now, I leave you.

Today Started Out Ordinary

I'm being completely and totally serious when I say that today started out as nothing special. Today started out as every single other boring old day would. And then things got weird.
My parents were going up to my dad's construction site today to check out the progress on the new building and they asked if we (my brother and I) wanted to come with them. We had nothing better to do, considering it was a plain boring day and so we said yes.
I went to my room to get dressed. This is the climax, are you sure you're ready for this? Proceed with caution.

I got dressed and as I was putting on my usual Keds, the ones I've worn basically every other day for this past year, I noticed something stuck between the tongue and the laces of one of the shoes. I pulled it out and it's this super super old, practically archaic folded up paper with writing all in Arabic. My heart nearly stopped, and I took it outside so my mum could tell me what it was, since she understands Arabic and I don't. Well, believe it or not, this odd piece that miraculously appeared in my shoe is a very very old and very rare page from the bible. They say that if you receive this paper from a holy place or from a priest, it's the best kind of luck you can get and they don't hand them out to just anybody.

Nobody knows where it came from
Nobody knows how it found its way into my shoe
We can only assume that it's some sort of a divine message

Is it a miracle?
I'll leave that to up to you to decide.
