The Scientist's Perspective
One day, Archimedes was walking in Syracuse when he sat down to observe. As always, his mind was registering everything, taking mental notes of the small events that made up the life of the people around him. But that day he had noticed something very peculiar: the sight of a horse walking backward. Not a few steps, but hundreds, until it was out of sight.
By that point, he was reaching seventy-five years old. His adventures and discoveries when young brought him a lot of fame now. Naturally, when that strange phenomenon manifested, the people asked him for advice, or just simply an explanation.
Archimedes excused himself and shut himself up at his house for days. No word came out until one morning he reappeared.
-If we are all submerged in the water of reality, eventually something will come out of the bathtub and spill out.
Archimedes died one year later.
