they still bring me happiness.
This is one my favorite of his
memories and I cannot explain why.
He is descending a staircase and sees
a large plant blowing in the wind.
Flopping its fronds together
in a sort of plant applause.
I have viewed this
memory over 6,000 times.
You missed him.
I do not have the mental or emotional
capacity to deal with his loss.
But sometimes, I sit in a chair late
at night and quietly feel very bad.
When the night is at its most
quiet, I can hear death.
I am very proud of my sadness
because it means I am more alive.
I no longer fall in
love with rocks.
In 60 days from now, a
meteor will strike the Earth
and most everyone here
will die horribly.
Our wealthiest individuals are now uploading
their digital consciousnesses into cubes
that they are launching
into deep space.
Our lower classes are desperately
trying to escape the meteor
through discount time travel, causing
untold millions to die in orbit.
Their dead bodies burn as they return to
Earth and now light up our night sky.
Whats this up in the sky?
Dead bodies!
Look another one!
Yes. It is very pretty.
Theyre OK?
No. Theyre all dead.
Ill count them!
- One, Two, Three...
- We are all doomed, Emily Prime.
Even those on the
interplanetary ports.
They are rumored to be burying the clones
of world leaders beneath the Earth.
Emily Prime, there is another
reason I have contacted you today.
You retain an early memory that I have
forgotten that was very important to me.
I wish to retrieve it
from you before I die.
memory from you now.
This is... This is me
And mommy.
This is me and mommy walking.
This is me and mommy walking.
A rainbow!
Thank you, Emily. This will bring
me great comfort in the days ahead.
You missed it. I saw it.
You missed it.
This is your future, Emily Prime. It is
sometimes a sad life and it is a long life.
You will feel a deep longing for
something you cannot quite remember.
It will be a beautiful visit.
And then we shall share the same
fate as the rest of the human race:
dying horribly.
The advice is give you now is the
advice I remember receiving from myself
at your age in this moment, so I cannot be
certain where it actually originated from:
Do not lose time on daily trivialities.
For all of these things melt away and drift
apart within the obscure traffic of time.
Live well and live broadly.
Now is the envy of
all of the dead.
OK!
Thank you, Emily Prime.
It has been an honor to meet you and a joy to
emerge from your 3rd generation birth canal.
