How lovely. Do you ever wonder ... Is the shadow following you or are you following your shadow? This is a poor paraphrasing of the following: Once upon a time, I, Chuang Chou, dreamt I was a butterfly, fluttering hither and thither, to all intents and purposes a butterfly. I was conscious only of my happiness as a butterfly, unaware that I was Chou. Soon I awaked, and there I was, veritably myself again. Now I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly, dreaming I am a man

we dream we live,
and will never
know for sure...
will we?
