Alternate Realities
“Master Law: What is friendship?
Second Student: We propose it’s a sharing of realities.
Master Law: Do you also propose to step into the same river in the same instant and in the same place?
Student: Perhaps ... friendship is equivalency of realities.
Master Law: How do you establish that equivalency?
Student: If we were equal.
Master Law: In all respects?
Student: In the important ones. In the ones we consider important. Is that possible, sir?
Master Law: Have you not equally defined rivalry?
...Second Student: If we agreed.
Master Law: If common reality is your reality, it exists, within that referent. It either of you exists, which is by no means certain.
