sweden vanished like an apparition. it was a few days fluke, what's a fluke? i don't know, usually something that happens once. this was a brief serial fluke. a miniseries visitation. not a trace. i also thought, and read something...that most of what we have is traces of things that pass and linger as memory, and eventually drop from memory. are they still informing consciousness? watched a film about a war photographer hired to determine the truth of an apparition and it didn't make sense to me at all except the words about people not wanting proof, they want to believe it is true or a damn lie, and that's it. they want to leave the mystery be. there are apparitions whether true or not and they cannot be proved one way or another.
