The thought flashed into my mind as I watched a B-grade movie on cable. Thoughts do that - as much as we can deny the idea of them popping into our heads out of nothing; they often do.
The thought that flashed and quivered in my mind was; if we - humans - imbue symbols with meaning, that is, when I write in 'English' what I'm actually doing is notating symbols that I have assigned meaning to, if we divine meaning from pictures and symbols and form - could everything we experience in this life be mere words in a book that only reveals it's true meaning at the end?
Could each image and sound and feeling and taste and smell and ... could all of this be another paragraph in a Bible that you and I will only fully appreciate at the moment just before death?
Just a thought.
Back to cable...
