Paranoid Speculations


Do you believe in destiny? That your path is set? That you have a certain purpose in life that has to be fulfilled?

What if someone pushes you of your path? What if they steal your future? Do you believe that could be possible?

You continue living your life, but something feels off. There’s an itch at the back of your mind, telling you that something isn’t right. And then you start to notice that the life you always imagined for yourself is being lived by other people. People you know. People you used to call friends.

One person gets the bookdeal that was meant for you. The other gets the man of your dreams. Yet another one buys the house you always pictured growing old in, and so it goes with every last one of your dreams.

It feels as if the best possible version of your future has been stolen, broken into to pieces and redistributed.

But why? And by whom?
