Parallel Universes…

"These are some of the wildest characters in comics and yet, they seem the most real to me."
-Tim Burton [Talking about the Batman characters]

As a kid when I talked about the Aliens 'they' thought I was the biggest gossiper around. But Aliens existed for me, at least in my world. I could talk to the friendly ones and was scared of the ones who looked creepy and dangerous. Though Superheroes living there always made me feel safer and I believed I will join their league when I grow up. I guess I have not grown up yet. This parallel universe was the most mysterious place and one just needed little bit of imagination to walk into it. I have always enjoyed believing that we are inside a video game but because of the malfunction in the chip got out of the control. No surprise then that we keeping colliding into each other without reasons.

Unknown and unexplained is what makes this life so interesting. Think, how boring mathematics will be if infinity never existed and physics if there was a limit to maximum and minimum.

When things went wrong in this world I went to the parallel one. And because there were so many like me there, they always helped me come out of those not so good times. I guess there is a very thin line between being schizophrenic and something I experience. Something which is hard to explain but as I said that's the fun of it…the fun of never really growing up, the fun of creating mysterious worlds and finding meanings in the every mystery around…the fun of being called a storyteller now…they mistake same gossips for stories now…

I might vanish from here one day…but I will continue to exist somewhere…between those strange games and creatures you thought were just myth…

Hi Sumit,
Just came across your blog....its fascinating!!! I completely belive in your idea of Parallel Universe. I guess we all are schizophrenic in our own ways ....at times when role playing becomes too intriguing in life it is basically scizophrenia in disguise. Good to read your blog. Keep it up!
