Thought Experiments vs. Humble Opinions
We are made of stories, believe in stories, listen to stories, create and pass them to our peers, to the next generation or to complete strangers. Humans have this incredible capacity of inventing worlds with words. I'm not an expert in story telling, but I'm sure that there are some stories in my mind that have the right to come out and meet the real world: stories that I heard or eavesdropped, stories I made up because part of the real story was missing, stories from the past and occasionally future, well-known stories that have been reshaped, mixed up or simply told backwards. Or stories whose side character is the undersigned.
I used to commute daily, back and forth, for about seventy minutes each way. Sometimes, the trip extended to hundred minutes, due to either weather conditions or dramatic incidents, such as railway accidents, terrorist warnings, insecure shaft detections, pass overloads and all sorts of other commuting happenings.
