Life and Death
People are amazing. We are so much more than a hunk of meat wrapped on some bones. We are a collection of a lifetime of experiences. We are memories and thoughts and ideas. We are even somewhat other people’s memories thoughts and ideas. As we move through life we interact with others, touching their lives. If the human experience is an ocean, then we are waves in that ocean, coming into contact with others, and changing their very nature. It almost seems unfair that we are confined to this hunk of flesh. Perhaps that is where the idea of a soul comes from. Once the source of the wave is old and broken down, and has propagated as far as possible, the source dies and allows the waves to echo forever.
