I have 2 parents, 4 grandparents, 8 great grandparents etc. You get the picture. I worked out that if you go back 50 generations (in other words to the time of the first Anglo Saxon settlers in the British Isles) I should be able to pick out trillions and trilions of ancestors. Just try doubling the number 50 times, Excel can't even display the number.
But there weren't that many people in the world at that time, so... what happened to all my ancestors ??

Do you think it is different to each individual’s perspective?
or
Do you think everyone's reality is the same?


Do you think there is more than one reality?

Do you think we change our reality?

What is your perspective? (Did you develop that perspective on your own, or have you accepted someone else’s perspective as your own?)





I am extremely interested as to how our society, in modern times, sees reality; with all the new information we have about our place in the universe.
I look forward to reading your answers!!! ^_^

Depending on their personal belief it is not necessary because they are going to die/be reincarnated/ressurected anyway regardless of their current physical status.

Does the protective coating "have to be" one from an art store, that says for Acrylic Paintings? Isn't a non yellowing form of protectant sealer from a home improvement store just as good? I just don't see shelling out extra cash just because something has a name brand label on it. It's not like my pieces are family heirlooms I just want something to protect them and give them a nice shine.

Our english class has to read 100 pages per week. The good thing is we get to choose what we read, but I'm running out of ideas. Any books you want to suggest?

I would like either, but both is best, a written out list of steps each partner takes or an illustrated set of steps for dances like the Raspa and the Mexican hat dance but focusing on the less known dances of Mexico, like El Venado, La Zandunga, Los Matlachines, Jesusita en Chihuahua and La Bamba. Thanks.
