Einstein's Dream

Reading a very inspiring book Einstein's Dreams by Alan Lightman. It makes you settle down and really contemplate time and possibilities. I highly recommend it to anyone...truely genius but shows Einstein's soft feelings. It is a collection of Einstein's short stories, each focusing on a different aspect of time (all set in "worlds")

this lil peak into the book is from a short story where at some point in a persons life they see a glimpse at their future....

"For those who have had a vision, this is a world of guaranteed success. Few projects are started that do not advance a career. Few trips are taken that do not lead to the city of destiny. Few friends are made who will not be friends in the future. Few passions wasted...
...Who would fare better in this world of fitful time? Those who have seen the future and live only one life? Or those who have not seen the future and wait to live life? Or those who deny the future and live two lives?"
