Everybody Spurts
A long time ago I looked into somebody's eyes and instantly fell hopelessly in love forever. I started to weep, because I knew that no matter how much my mind twisted itself around the concept of loving them, we could never be together in this world. It seems to me that the gap between two conscious beings is infinite, never to be spanned by any spark of the imagination. I could be wrong.
I recently started reading a book that to some extent incorporates elements in the style of magical realism. I like magical realism because it uses the written medium to bend our conceptions of possibility. Technichally, anything is possible. The quantum model of the universe tells us that the only obstacle to that which is "impossible" is probability. That which bends probability is energy. Technically, if somebody's mind could harvest and control incredibly massive amounts of energy, they could make insane things happen, such as making a feast appear out of nowhere or having Tammy's beautiful scalp reappear on her head, hair and all. Unfortunately, despite the incredible complexity of the human mind, it has no apparent capacity to create significant amounts of energy. Though it may seem to some that the human body and mind are permeated by all sorts of mysterious waves/vibrations/auras, this is almost certainly an illusion created by our ability to manufacture perceptons of that which does not physically exist. Even if the human mind could harness the unthinkably large amounts of energy needed to bend the laws of physics, it apparently has no capacity to control or focus that energy. It's a lump of flesh sitting inside of some bones. Furthermore, if the brain somehow could overcome these obstacles and control fantastic amounts of energy, directing them to influence massive leaps of probability in individual pieces of matter, this would seem to require imcomprehensible amounts of precision and neural organization; a perfect mind, so to speak. Given the inherent sloppiness of the human thought process, it seems highly unlikely that any living person could ever have the ability to affect the physical world through concerted thought. Then again, anything's possible.
