Circular Squares, 1

Suppose oblivion lies on the other side of the boundaries of life. Before and after life. And here I am, imagining oblivion from a non-oblivion state.

If from nothingness we enter into something and exit back into nothingness, would that not imply the existence of an infinite number of somethings -- of lives, of realities?

Things exist only because we, with our consciousness, have the ability to determine their existence and infer their existence prior to our own.

But before I was born -- before each one of us was born -- it appears that nothing existed. So at the moment of death, if it's anything like before our birth, the entire universe will vanish once more into non-existence.

It truly is unfortunate that decent (albeit expensive) products such as those offered by the North Face have been hijacked by douche-bags. Seriously. It's hard for me to believe that these mommy-and-daddy, fraternity-leaning, SUV-driving, backwards baseball cap-wearing, bar-hopping, slut-banging, sorry excuses for male specimens really appreciate the quality of their gear.

No, it's not about that. Did I mention I forgot to include "North Face-wearing" in my long but incomplete list of douche-bag qualifiers?
