Yesterday I wrote down that we think success is granted, because we were told so. The second I wrote it down, something completely different popped up in my mind. If you think about it, most of the knowledge we take for granted, we were merely told. Starting from the most basics. How many of you travelled around the globe, and -I mean literally- arriving to the same point of origin by only traveling one way along the east-west orientation. I can't think of anyone in my little group of people. Still, we all believe that our planet is a globe. I have not seen it, and if I take a litte imagination and just lean back in my chair, its quiet frustrating that there actually could be the Pillars of Hercules somewhat west of the shores of the United States, there is absolutely no hard evidence against it.

Take gravity. The big rounded thing under us pulls things towards it (of course the small ones are pulling the big one but that is the part that already makes my head hurt). No matter if its me, you or a canonball. What if from elementary school you were told that the big blue thing above you, is a material that pushes things away from it. You, me, canonballs, but not white airplane shaped objects with a pilot in them. Would you not believe in the same sincere way? Oh we take all that for granted. Maybe it's magic in the microwave, we are just all eating the cover story..

I am not saying these are likely, I am just saying its creepy enough, that they are "possible".
