"So i remember every face. Of every man who put me here"


"After a lot of research I found these:

There is divine beauty in learning, just as there is human beauty in tolerance. To learn means to accept the postulate that life did not begin at my birth. Others have been here before me, and I walk in their footsteps. The books I have read were composed by generations of fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, teachers and disciples. I am the sum total of their experiences, their quests. And so are you. - Elie Wiesel

Our lives are a sum total of the choices we have made. -- Wayne Dyer

I am the sum total of everything that I have experienced musically. --
Hank Jones

I know they're not the exact quote you are looking for. I think this is a common saying especially the phrase 'sum total', so it's not attributed to someone in particular.

Sometimes things in our lives come just too fast to have time to understand so we can make real choices. It's easier to remember though and try to understand later.

One day i was in hospital in December 2002 and a therapist asked me if i ever wanted to take revenge on people who did me wrong in the past. I felt he was fearing for himself although he had this sarcastic smile on his face. I told him not to worry, my list is way too long and i forgotten with whom it started.

It's the hospital where i called one night in January 2003 911 from a pay phone telling the operator i was fearing for my life. They didn't respond to that call. I was at Woodland Park Hospital in Portland, Oregon.

That hospital was closed a year or so later for the same reason, the doctors called 911 and sent a patient with an ambulance to a different hospital.

Now it's reopened under a different name.

I know there are hard times in people's life when people say exceptions become the rule. But in my life coincidences have become the rule.

I also suspect now many of the faces surrounding me don't have a real name...

It is too much. From now on i will put on this post' comments every strange coincidence in my life. Yesterday i was browsing the web for something i know i shouldn't have because it is too touchy. But i was curious how they solved a major problem that occurred last year. In an hour or so i couldn't find much. From bits and pieces i constructed in my head an image that might be close to reality. Than around 12:23 PM i quit looking and went to the TV to watch again the Star Trek episode Cause and Effect which i started watching the night before, about the recurrent collisions of two star ships trapped in a causal loop. I just read the news about the collision of two US military ships near Florida. To me this type of coincidences happen every day. I will continue to write here everything i can remember from the past. But there are too many things happening that prevent me from having time to think too much of the past. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cause_and_Effect_%28Star_Trek:_The_Next_Generation%29
Right now i put the DVD back on and re-watching the episode. I got the DVD from Lake Oswego library. But it doesn't have the same logo at the beginning as all of the others from the series Best of Star Trek New Generations, but a CBS logo.
