World: Magic Swirlin' Ship




I have come to believe that life is circular or if you grew up in the 90’s that there is a circle of life.  But it encompasses more than the simplistic sons of our fathers and fathers of our sons type of thing.  It is weaved into the very fabric of our existence.

The pattern is obviously vastly more complex but there is a certain order to it.  A leads to B leads to C leads D leads to A and we start all over again.  Let’s have a look at it in a few examples.

Example 1:
A: A writer writes a book.
B: A year later the book becomes a film.
C: A year later the film becomes a book based on the film
D: 20 years later film gets a remake.
A: A year later the remake gets turned into a book based on the remake.

Example 2: (This was actually related to me by John Rhys-Davies who called it Toxicorium Gondii)
A: Rat eats dead TG infected cat
B: Rat dies from TG
C: Different cat eats rat
D: Cat dies from infected rat
A: Rat eats dead TG infected cat

We also get this thing called RETRO where old becomes new again such as the hoola-hoop, vinyl records vacuum tubes, pocket watches, clothing styles.  Nothing ever truly goes away for ever.
