The universe is but one construct. Positions in it are perceptions of this singular construct. Parallel universes really aren't parallel, more sort of what happens if you squeeze various tubes of paint unto a canvas. They come together and where they touch they mix. But any color can usually be approached from a variety of directions and neighboring colors. There is an infinite number of possible states for every aspect of the universe. And a perception in it is any internally consistent state or manifested reality that does not contradict itself into some existential crisis.
We move our perception through this construct along certain self dictated laws. For example time moves forward and causality defines the transmutation of state into state always guarding the consistency. These laws are more a function of the beholder than of the matter beheld. They cause the motion picture of life.
You perceive the whole universe, or at least all of it that is relative to you. You could anxiously try to get to places beyond the horizon. But their existence is only relative to you. Don't get me wrong they do exist without your perception. But only as potential once you get there it's you that makes them what they are to you. It is certain that what you see of them now is only your anticipation.
In other words... They, these places or what you see when you're in them are exactly related to you. You define them. You realize them. You are their root cause. Not the other way around.
If the life you want to live cannot be found in this world Jamal.. Then you are not creating it. Perhaps because you desire an inconsistency. Can you experience this world and the world you dream off at the same time? If not then maybe they're inconsistent, mutually exclusive... If you're in New York you cannot be in London. These states mutually exclude. Or is our imagination failing us? Are there shortcuts like telephone or television? Perhaps all these states exist somewhere in the infinite complexity of this perceived singular construct. If they do.. Do you need to go there? Or can you pull their reality into yours?
You know exactly what you were like in that peaceful infinite.Why are you not that exact thing here? What is holding you back? A New Yorker can live in London and still bring a bit of New York with him, him being that bit.
I hope this isn't too abstract or too confusing. I've felt loneliness and homesickness for much of my time here. Until I accepted earth as home and humanity as tribe. Don't get me wrong. But if you don't have the same luck I believe it's because you're not making the same choice.
