Unaware

It's the 5th of the month, so I have a little post over here. I'd appreciate it if you checked it out (and left a quick comment).

Last night, I was pondering a story. This is another one that may never actually get written, but as I visualized two of the characters talking, one of them said something interesting. And it led me to a "what if?" 

What if there is a singular consciousness? What if we only tap into a small portion of that consciousness? What if all our minds are linked, but we are just unaware of this link?

(What if I actually used these questions to finish a story?)

Thoughts?

    If its true, I REALLY need to unlock my potential. I've always wanted my super power to be mind reading, I figure if we are all connected we'd be able to read each others minds and communicate telepathically. Right? Or am I totally missing the point here?

    Ooh, interesting. It would be like we're connected and we act and react to that but because we're unaware, things just seems like coincidence/fortune/whatever, when it is really the singular consciousness acting.

    This is a really cool thought. I love thinking about it.

    I went and commented. I was so surprised that orange is your favorite color. Not that I could tell from your blog or anything...

I appreciate your comments.

I respond to comments* via email, unless your profile email is not enabled. Then, I'll reply in the comment thread. Eventually. Probably.

*Exception: I do not respond to "what if?" comments, but I do read them all. Those questions are open to your interpretation, and I don't wish to limit your imagination by what I thought the question was supposed to be.
