Infinite parallel universes
In superman's comics they introduced the concept of Parallel universes. First they introduced Earth 2, which is just like this earth but in a different dimension. The same people who exist here also exist there but there is one difference: an event happens differently in one universe that produces a different timeline of events and effects on that whole reality. For example : if the superman rocket fell in Russia not in the USA, then a very different future is created for him. Sometimes it is also a choice that someone makes, or not make, that changes how the future universe unravels. The consequences of a small change can be astronomical! After earth2, Superman comics introduced infinite earths. The idea of parallel universes fascinates me.
I like imaging the 'me' that is in other parallel universes. How life would be if someone took a different choice. I look at people like Sister Germaine, the piano teacher and how important her decision was in my life. She of course had no idea. In a parallel universe where she accepted me as her piano student, where would I be? Maybe I would've been like Mozart! But maybe she was an enlightened soul who knew that I wasn't supposed to be musically groomed in a traditional way. Maybe she knew I needed to have more freedom and explore new musical ways to express my talent. If I was classically trained I wouldn't have ventured in the world of audio production and expressed using audio art and other non traditional ways of musical expression.
