Alternative Realities

How many times have we made a decision and later wished we hadn’t, done something purely spontaneous with amazing or drastic results or not taken advantage of something that could’ve benefited us greatly.
Well there’s no need to beat ourselves up about choices and decisions any more, not if you listen to the latest claims by scientists. Somewhere out there parallel universes exist. Alternative realities containg us with minor differences.

As a dedicated fan of Dr Who (who could resist David Tennant) Star Trek, The Matrix Trilogies and StarGate, it’s safe to say I love science fiction, I’m also a daydreamer with visions of a perfect world with a perfect climate populated by perfectly happy people so it annoys me to think my reality here is not consiously aware of my existance in alternative realities.
Lost? Well so am I I suppose. Mind you, science rarely makes sense to the likes of me I struggle to make sense of washing machine instructions or self assembly kits, so what hope do I have of understanding mind boggling scientific theories. I don’t understand teenage girls though I was once one myself, and I don’t understand why my brain tells me I can still do the splits but my body refuses to comply.

Imagine the fun jumping between universes watching ourselves and knowing even if we get in wrong in one place the odds are we got it right elsewhere.
It’s all very Matrix stuff and they say you have to totally open the mind and change concept of reality. Sounds good to me, there are many times I’d love to change mine and other people’s concepts of that, especially when I’m arguing a point or making a complaint especially over the phone. It seems staff in customer service departments take great pleasure trying to assure me the problem doesn’t exist, I’m wrong, mistaken, or the issue has been dealt with. How convenient for them knowing if I get irrigational they can disconnect leaving me to go through the whole process all over again with a different customer service employee. What happened to the reality of customers always being right.

Come to think of it though, the negative side to having access to me in parallel universes is I’d get to see myself doing mundane tasks such as cleaning the oven and windows several times over and see myself repeating those embarrassing events that we strive to forget over and over again...Eek!

In retrospect I’m not convinced opening the mind to more concepts of reality is a good thing, sometimes dealing with this version of reality is quite sufficient.
