> Well, I've been bored all day. I wanted to do some drawing, but I can't find my art pad anywhere. I'm not really in the poem mood at the moment. So I decided that I wanted to type. And what better to share with the community than one of my weird thoughts.

> I want to start off by saying that I do not believe in what I'm about to write. I think it's ridiculous, to be honest. Also, if you know of any one who has already stated this idea, and actually believes it, tell me. I'm curious to know if someone thinks like me. Oh, and then get that person some help. Well, here goes.

> Ok, what if, in this world, no one exists but me. I live my life, and everyone else only "exists" when they come in contact with me. I can't see them when they're not around me. I can't hear them when they can't be heard by me. I can't feel them when they can't be touched by me. So, do they exist? Like in this forum, these people only exist as what they say they are. They're only here to entertain me, to pursuade me, and even to help me. But they don't really exist. Or now, I can't see my parents, I can't hear my parents, do they just disappear until some unknown force wants them to appear in my presence? It's kind of odd to think about.

This reminds me of an episode of a show i cant quite remember the name of, it had Allen Thick and Kirk Cameron....
Kirk's charactor was watching TV and flipping through channels and was awed that the shows continued on as he wasn't watching them. He turned to his dad that just came in the room and was watching kirk become paranoid and said dad the world goes on without me.

I have that and similar thoughts now and then. One of the most resent was if a person went back in time and wanted to chang history and succeded then came back, history would already have been changed so he wouldn't want to go go change history so history would never be changed in the first place.

Using the grandfather paradox, if he went back in time and accidentily killed his grandfather, he wouldn't exist so he couldn't go back in time to kill his grandfather so he would then still exist.

Another thought is are we all just someones dream, and when they wake up we all cease to exist? These all may be odd thoughts but there fun and interesting nonetheless.
