There's this guy.
And...he's totally depressed!

I mean, his great dream was to be a lover, an adventurer,
you know, riding motorcycles through South America,
and instead he's sitting at a marble table, eating lobster,and
he's got a good job and a beautiful wife, right.
You know, everything that he needs. But that doesn't matter,
'cause what he wants is to fight for meaning.
You know, happiness is in the doing,
not in the...getting what you want.

So, he's sitting there,and just at a second,
his little five year old daughter hops up on the table.
And he knows that she should get down'cause she could get hurt,
but she's dancing to this pop song,in a summer dress.
And he looks down,and all of a sudden,he is sixteen.
And... his high school sweetheart is dropping him off, at home.
And they've just lost their virginity,and she loves him,
and the same song is playing on the car radio,and she climbs up
and starts dancing on the roof of the car.
And now,now he's worried about her!

And she is beautiful, with a...a facial expression just like his daughters'.
In fact, you know, maybe that's why he even likes her. You see, he knows he's not
remembering this dance,he's there. He's there in both moments simultaneously.
And just like for an instance,all his life is just folding into itself and it's obvious to him that time is a lie...that's it's all happening all the time and inside every moment is another moment, all...You know, happening simultaneously.
