Aging through time Today, an elder caveman just passed away. It was quite sad, in fact, since I knew this caveman from the first day I came here. Based on this caveman's age, I've been in this cave for the past forty years. This man was merely a teenager when I arrived here.
This made me realize what aging is all about. It was in a way really depressing. Knowing that all of these cavemen and women were eventually going to grow and die, and here I'll remain, forever.
After we had the funeral for this man's death, everyone sat in a circle. I couldn't help but notice everyone giving me bits of stares here and there. I seemed to represent what it meant to escape the chains of life and death.
I've been feeling the chains come back to try and tie me down somehow. These cave people seemed really frustrated and angry at me lately. I feel I'm not wanted anymore. Perhaps, I should leave this place and carry on elsewhere.
I can't forget, I have a very important mission to complete in the future. Even if I wanted to stay here, a few of the cavemen grouped together and chased me out of the cave. They told me to leave them alone and never return. Instead of believing I was some sort of God, now they believed I was some sort of monster.
It's funny, how people's views can change based on their current moods.
Anyway, I'm off for some more searching for a way to travel ahead in time.
