a good post by zephyr's cat !

Is there anything intrinsically special about the "stories we tell ourselves" (i.e., our narratives)?

I think this is the most important question facing the modern age. I have thought long and hard about this, and I've come to the conclusion that there's some truth to solipsism. There is no such thing as a collective narrative. There are only individual narratives and perceived overlap, but I believe each narrative is unique unto the individual and the overlap is illusion.

This is the conclusion I have come to. We are entirely alone with the babble of our own minds and nothing more.

Endless dreams within dreams, the history of civilizations dust forevermore.
