Are the only two certainties that there are at least two players, you and everything that’s not?

Can what you think might have been

turn out more like what you thought,

even if it didn’t?

Can observation alter the observed?

If opponents don’t begin with pieces of the same number and value
and players can think they’re winning when losing,
can influencing others’ thoughts enhance results, and vice versa?

Is what’s happening, happening or what you tell yourself is happening?

When you recall, are you remembering,

or are you remembering the last memory of a recollection?

The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.

Socrates

Is yesterday a certainty, if the past is dependent on the present?

Is what you used to look like what you see in a mirror?

Things are not what they appear to be,

nor are they otherwise.

Buddha

Is the present a place you’ve never been?

Is present experience relative to the past
or memories of the past?

Can some things not matter until they do,

unless they actually do while you believe they don’t until it’s too late?

Is what you remember
usually better or worse than what actually happened?

If there’s no certainty of what was, is will be or why,
is the only certainty present thought?
