So, I have been having many different thoughts on existence and such. I don't really know where this site stands on drug use, so I will use the DrugForums approach and use the acronym SWIM (Someone who isn't me) when speaking of hypothetical drug use.

First, I would like to address a statement I came across. This one was actually not from myself: "Existence and non-existence seems binary, yet existence would have to exist in order for the very concept of non-existence to exist. So existence is its own self-creating, self-invoking concept." -Unknown DXM User-
I found this to be quite thought provoking and it does make sense. It is quite paradoxical, but it is very fun to entertain this thought. Existence and non-existence are merely concepts created by the potentially-existing. Non-existence would not be a conceivable concept if we did not exist. I don't think I really need to say anything else about this, since the quote speaks for itself.
---
Next I would like to address a few things pondered upon by me and my partner. Me and her had begun to propose the possibilities of every atom - or if you would like to go a bit larger, molecule - containing within it another universe. Every piece of matter perhaps does contain another universe. Perhaps in our very bodies we are holding trillions of other universes with other life forms. I think this thought is a very interesting and fun one. To think that at the tip of your finger alone you could have all sorts of different terrestrial beings living their own lives.
---
Another thing we had considered is the possibility that whenever one sleeps, the next day you are not in the same universe. Perhaps you die and come back to life in another dimension or universe, where everything has been recreated perfectly except for one small insignificant thing. For an alternative, I considered the possibility that maybe this happens every moment. And since time measurement is infinite, perhaps we are being recreated over and over again, infinitely. As a base, I will use the word "seconds." Maybe every second our memories are being recreated, along with our bodies and everything around us. Hmm.

That's about it for this thread. Hopefully I got some people thinking.
