It was a fantastic movie that truly explores the idea of a multiverse (better than Dr. Strange or Loki even), and (as bizarre as parts of it are) it deserves all of the attention that it has received if for no other reason than the core story about reconnecting with the ones that we love.
Meanwhile, it feels like everything is happening all at once in my own life. I just finished setting most of the clocks forward for the Daylight Saving Time that I despise so much. Before that, I packed my bags for the beginning of my Rome and Athens trip which starts at the end of tomorrow.
I actually feel ready for it. I've done what I can think of to prepare and now must leave it up to God for everything else to fall into place. Perhaps this was the best time to see that movie considering its overarching, Zen-like theme within a multiverse of choices. For I don't buy into the theory of the multiverse--not that it cannot exist, but that I cannot experience any branching paths in my universe. Once my choices have been made, they are made irrevocably; even changes to them later must deal with that initial choice--and it's fine to be in that messy reality which I have created for myself while accepting the parts over which I have no control.
I'm ready to have a grand adventure, mistakes and all.
