"Don't be
ridiculous. God probably doesn't even know I exist," I hear you say.
"Au contraire, mon Amie," for the briefest of moments, you are the
only thing that exists, the only thought in God's mind. Let me explain.
TV and video,
moving pictures, don't really move, as you probably know. What we perceive as
moving images is really a series of still images flashed before our eyes
sufficiently quickly to appear as continuous movement to our brains. I believe
that anything above 30 Frames Per Second (FPS) is sufficient.
A computer works in
a somewhat similar manner; a Von Neumann machine; sequentially processing one
'instruction' at a time and, thus, changing the state of the whole machine each
processor 'tick'.
Lost? Imagine you
are in your kitchen about to bake a cake. The first 'instruction' might be,
"Get 200g flour. So, the state of your kitchen work-surface changes from
empty to having 200g of flour on it. Each step of the recipe will change the
state of your kitchen and you could film it, one frame at a time.
You can only think
one thought at a time. You might think that you can think of several things at
once, but you can't. Go ahead, think of an elephant and think of a
giraffe.
Maybe you can visualize
both of them standing next to each other but that's not what I mean. You can
think of the elephant, then, you stop thinking about the elephant and think
about the giraffe, and you switch back and forth between them.
It's much easier to
do this in words. To describe them walking you would say something like,
"the elephant lifts it's front right leg and the giraffe places it's left
rear leg down." These are separate actions. First you described what the
elephant did then, you stopped describing the elephant and described the
giraffe.
So, what if God
describes a small State change for you, then describes a small state change for
me, then describes a small state change for John, then describes a small state
change for Mary, then describes a small state change for... until everything in
the Universe is processed, then He goes back and does it all again, Ad
infinitum, so fast that we can't (yet) detect it?
This is not
ridiculous or outlandish, some quantum physicists already think something
similar.
So, as I said
earlier, for one Universal 'frame' the only thing that occupies God's
attention, the only thing on God's mind, is YOU. For one brief period, you have
God's undivided attention.
Use your time-slice
well.
Love and peace!
