If you were god
Imagine you are god! And you could literally do anything. What would you do? Well it’s obvious, isn’t it? You could make anything you desired happen, so…
At a snap of your fingers you would live in the most sensual, pleasurable of heavens. You’d eat the most exquisite of foods, served by the most angelic of nubile bodies. You’d experience the highest of highs without illness, without ever coming down. You’d live for billions of years without fear of death.
But after a while, it’d get boring, right? There’s no punch. No twist. No surprise. So of course you’d like one. What would you do?
You’d take a moment out of your infinite pleasure to put yourself in a situation where you’re being bested by the most magnificent of villains. And he puts you through all the torture and pain and suffering you’d like to go through for a lifetime.
But after a while even this would get boring, right?
Because you call all the punches. You plan all the twists. You’re God. There are no surprises. But of course you’d like one. What would you do?
You’d put yourself in a situation where you don’t have all of your powers, or all of your memory. Just to experience the highs and lows of being one of your creations. Just to experience what it’s like to really live, and then die. For fun. Suddenly you find yourself where you are now, reading this story, the memory of being God completely extinguished from your mind. After all, that’s just a fantasy, right? You’re not bored now, are you?
