“If it’s true that we’re all from the center of a star, that every atom in each of us is from the center of a star, then we’re all the same thing, and even a Coke machine or a cigarette butt on the street in Buffalo are made out of atoms that came from a star. They’ve all been recycled thousands of times as have you and I. So, if that’s true, then I am everywhere in the universe, in an extended sense, and therefore, it’s only me out there, so what is there to be afraid of? What is there that needs solace-seeking? Nothing. There’s nothing to be afraid of, because it’s all us.
The trouble is, we’ve been separated from being that universe by being born, and given a name, and an identity, and being individuated. We’ve been separated from the oneness. People have this yearning to be part of the overall one again.
Every person you look at; you can see the universe in their eyes, if you’re really looking.”
~George Carlin[h/t Guillaume Gris]

Back in the 1980’s, I went to my neighborhood Ma & Pa video store and had them order me brand new copies of Halloween II & Halloween III on VHS.
Now keep in mind, back then most people didn’t own pre-recorded VHS tapes of their favorite films, as most films were priced at what was called “rental cost”, which hovered around $80-100 (yes, you read that right). So by having copies of these movies at that time, you were either a huge fan, an imbecile or BOTH! Now here’s the kicker, because I paid so much to acquire them I was always afraid to wear them down in the VCR…so I kept to watching the copies I taped off of HBO! 😂
