#10: Space<\/strong><\/p>\n

I wonder how much room there is in space.<\/p>\n

I wonder if the vastness ever feels lonely.<\/p>\n

I wonder if the airless vacuum ever feels crushing.<\/p>\n

I wonder how long it would take to close the gap. How long it would take to explore it\u2019s entirety.<\/p>\n

I wonder what you would think of all this.<\/p>\n

I wonder if you\u2019re just another star in the sky made up of all the energy and dust of your former life here on earth.<\/p>\n

I wonder if you\u2019ve been reborn into another life.<\/p>\n

I wonder what being a soul without a body would be like.<\/p>\n

I wonder if at that point we could fly.<\/p>\n

I wonder if human life is doomed on earth. Will our future generations live elsewhere in our galaxy. Are we already.<\/p>\n

I wonder if some of my thoughts are crazy.<\/p>\n

I wonder if you\u2019re able to feel my presence when we\u2019re sitting in the same room, not speaking, not touching, but in the presence of one another.<\/p>\n

I wonder what our future looks like. Are we going to grow old together.<\/p>\n

I wonder why we feel time so linear if it really is multidimensional. Curious.<\/p>\n

I wonder how our species got to be so curious when it\u2019s been taught that it\u2019s so dangerous.<\/p>\n

I wonder what you\u2019re looking at while I\u2019m typing these words.<\/p>\n

I wonder what others will think when they read these words. Will they read these words.<\/p>\n

I wonder if my train of thought really is a train and if so what are the stops names and how often is the train scheduled to pass by that spot. Boy, that opens a can of worms: is free thought really a thing.<\/p>\n

I wonder how many of my wonders will ever be answered.<\/p>\n

I wonder if that\u2019s something that happens in death like 50 questions – all your questions are answered.<\/p>\n

I wonder if you only get 50 or if it\u2019s unlimited.<\/p>\n

I wonder, I wonder.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
