life is the sum of experiences that we encounter as we go through life. Day to day struggles and triumphs are experienced by all of the world's creatures. As human beings, when we encounter a challenge, we have freedom to choose how to react. Every decision that we make leads us down a different road. We will never come to exactly the same crossroads. Every decision the we make has significance. The tiniest choice that we make reverberates throughout the entire universe.

I understand what you are saying, but if I may offer my point of view, you are missing most of the puzzle. There is so much more to what you're talking about that it appears you've barely scratched the surface. It seems that you've embraced a very, very limited view of an otherwise amazingly inclusive concept of reality.

May I suggest that, if you haven't already delved into quantum theory, you might want to take a peek at it. Some of its theories and concepts are completely mind-blowing. In case you are not already aware, indirectly, the concept that you spoke of in your post is not an entirely unfamiliar topic of discussion and experimentation in quantum mechanics.

In my opinion, LIFE is so much more varied and amazing than the mere sum of our experiences! LIFE is not a sum-total game.

LIFE is all that is in both physical and non-physical systems of reality.

Anyway, it's obviously much too easy for me to become overly enthusiastic when I'm talking about something that I'm passionate about. So, I'll take my leave now and not say anything more for fear of sounding like a fanatical geek.
