I wasn’t kidding.

During lunch, I presented the argument, “I really believe that the world is connected. That somehow we are connected perhaps by invisible webs. How else can I explain how suddenly communication from people happen at the same time. And that is why I believe in ESP. I believe that I can mind read. When I try really hard, it doesn’t work. But when I let it go, it just happens. I know. I just know.”

They gave me glances of hesitation. Trepidation. But at that moment, I interpreted it as expressions of curiosity. I grinned wider and went on a longer rant of mind-reading. It really made sense to me.

Then my colleague said, “I also believe in aliens.”

Moments later, I realized how crazy I sounded. One step at a time to make the uncrazy…crazy.
