i even wonder if ultimately we as humans will choose to house this consciousness into a vessel that can last for hundreds of years and can be grown or changed into any shape that would better suit our needs.

whoaaaaaaa. only god can do that. right?

perhaps singularity is god.


That is some cool thinking...
I'd like to read up on some of the science fiction out
there discussing these nano topics.

In regards to what you were saying...
Maybe we are already there, bro. (In a crude fashion as
you will see.)

The other day I bit into a sandwich and one of the
molecules had a few atoms that had fueled you a year ago.

Wharf Rat smoked those atoms three years prior. Which
were the same seeds Polvo picked out of something the
year before.

Hoser planted it a season before that after Manny had
given her a hug and some of it had stuck to her cheek.

It came off an envelope sent by Dalin who got it
somewhere in Cali from JPG who got it at a SF Giants game.

Which arrived after several trips through various ball
parks originating in Fenway from Altair who got it
from Canada after stopping in the same rest stop as
Croc after pressing the button on the vending machine
for trail mix.

Those little nuts, raisins and berries were processed
in the same building as some Florida Oranges that
SiouxperMan sneezed on while driving down I-95.

<Clappy dangerously typed himself into a dilemma as he
tries to figure if he left anyone out by accident...>

Anyhow you get the picture...

Scientists say Ninety-eight percent of all the atoms
in a person's body are gone by next year.

Think about it.

We aren't living in the same body as we were last year.
Each and every atom has moved in and back out replaced by
another. We've received them through the air we breath,
the liquid we drink and food we eat, and methods we
haven't even thought of.

We are all pulling from the same energy source that is
made up of the same atoms.

We are all one.

We are all God.

Somehow this vessel we are temporarily sailing in isn't
complicated enough to think this way. It filters out our
own little temporary realities and we call it a life.

...or maybe not...

Sincerely,
-You

Our Real Self

Just by being ourselves
we are borne toward a destiny
far beyond anything
we could imagine.

It is enough to know
that the being
I nourish inside me
is the same as the Being
that suffuses every atom
of the cosmos.

When the two
see each other as equals
they will be equal,
because then the same force
that controls the galaxies
will be upholding
my individual existence
