that was really short and nice. to be honest i've thought of the concept before, and it's a bit mindblowing but also fascinating. it takes 2 minutes to read, you should check it out!

I remember reading this in... maybe twentyeleven, certainly sometime before my death and rebirth.

Before all of our deaths and rebirths.

The Egg is a short story written by Andy Weir, his most popular, and follows a nameless 48-year-old man who discovers the "meaning of life" after he dies. The story is about "you" (in the second person), and God, who is "me" (in the first person). God says that you have been reincarnated many times before, and that you are soon to be reincarnated once more, leading to quite a few existential questions.

There's not as much there as reviewers seem to be making of this little ...meditation...or whatever it is.
