Content Warning: This post is designed to make you think about normal things in not-so-normal ways. It could bring about existential thoughts for some.

I've become quite interested in mind-blowing thoughts recently. I thought it would be fun to share some with you! These are all from the top of my head, but you will probably have seen a few around in some form.

1.  There's no reason the alphabet needs to be in the order it is. The order could have been B, K, S, P, M...etc. without making any difference to our spelling.                                                                              
2. One of my Chemistry teachers once told us; "There are more stars in our Universe than there are grains of sand in the whole world, but there are more atoms in one grain of sand than there are stars in our Universe."                                                                                                                                                    
3. You know how dogs can't see as many colours as we can? What if different shades of grey are just colours we can't see?                                                                                                                                                  
4. Following on from the last one, if greys are colours we can't see, we can't imagine what they'd look like. Try it for yourself.                                                                                                                                                                                    
5. Subatomic particles (what makes up atoms) technically can't be destroyed or created, so the subatomic particles making up the atoms that make up you have been part of something else before. You could even have particles within you that were part of famous historical figures or artefacts.                                                                                                                                                                                    
6. You'll never truly know when you do something, like seeing someone or going somewhere, for the last time.                                                                                                                                                                
7. You never remember falling asleep. You may remember trying to sleep (like laying in bed with your eyes closed) but you can't remember the change from consciousness to sleeping.                                  
8. If you believe that there's an infinite number of realities, then technically fiction doesn't exist seeing as fiction means something that's imaginary.
