The Numbers Game
Today is my birthday and I'm thinking how these days measure the slot each human occupies in the empirical dimension. It's a mainstay in shaping a person's identity. One is that number. Exactly for one year. No argument.
People comply quite willingly. We even celebrate. It does seem to correlate with the physical progression of the body.
Each year gets a different digit, then digits, in a predictable well-ordered fashion. People's lives are organized, aren't they?
I seem to prefer the odd years. And that's odd.
This new one is odd.
So our earthly days are numbered. Is that logic? Is it arithmetic?
There's a neat little slot for one and all, precise and perfectly sequential.

Fly by Night
It dawned on me. The reason I like driving late night, that is.
The lights are calibrated differently, and I can travel from here to there unstopped by intersections. And from there to here. That's also attributed to the almost non-existent traffic in the hours I prefer.
I can sail through the night while still on solid ground. A most interesting combination. It's like bringing the earth up to me in a sort of reversal. Where exactly is the gravity?

Anyone's Guess
People's personas only exist in the images others have of them. We have no identity in reality.
I was convinced through my life that I would eventually find my ID, being of the Aries persuasion, but due to a twist of events, I instead came to the knowledge that I don't actually have one. My personality is a product of imagination. Of vapors, gasses, and general hallucinations. Who I am is anyone's guess.
