Something Else
Something else became unobservable. What exactly? I do not know. It is too early for me to detail and much too late for me to divulge. Although, it is a matter of great urgency and should therefore be seriously considered and reconsidered if need be. I’m not at all offended by quixotic remarks from unknowing bystanders. The most important thing to remember, without losing one’s selfish grip on reality, is that the human brain is a very powerful ally. Unfortunately, most see it as nothing more than an appendage and/or vital organ. But it is these things and so much more. So much more than even one person can fathom.
We have been lied to all of our lives. Not just little white lies here and there but full-fledged, uncompromising lies. Before you go and label me as yet another conspiracy nut; take into consideration my vision and perspective. If after all that is said you still feel it necessary to ridicule me and throw the proverbial stone; be my guest. I’ll even hand you the first stone. But not before I summarize and debrief the rest of humanity. So, with that in mind, here is my version of things. Of all things that have been and all things yet to come.
For most of us time seems to work against us and never with us. This is a bit of an understatement but can be easily rectified. We’ve been taught to believe that all things are ruled by time. It would be more accurate to say that all things are ruled by our perception of time. If you do not understand what I’m getting at, and I’m sure you don’t, please bear with me. It may take some time and effort on both our parts but we’ll get there.

I really like the feel and tone of this. I think it’s a great introduction! I felt a little daunted in the beginning but warmed up to the narrator’s voice near the end. I would suggest not using the “and/or” and just choosing one or the other. Having a slash in there and that phrase makes it seem very dry and textbook-like. I think the author’s formal and educated tone comes across well enough without that…and it really took me out of the moment when I came to that. It’s a very abstract and somehow meandering introduction but I think it stands well.
I wonder what will come next…
Very good writing, grammar, word choice! Overall well-rounded piece.
Thank you very much for reading and commenting. I will take your suggestion into consideration.
Interesting. Sounds like a prologue to something much bigger. You tend to keep the reader wondering after it is read. Which is a good thing especially if you’re moving on into a much larger story. Good job with this.
Thanks for reading and commenting. Indeed, the story does morph into something familiar yet awe-inspiring.
