You are what you eat. It’s a common enough phrase. Eat fat, you’ll be fat. Eat healthy, you’ll be healthy. People tend to ignore medical conditions, but that’s besides the point. What if you eat an angry fish or scared head of kale? Are our emotions tied to what we eat as well?

Is it possible to have just one soul mate? Mathematically, it just seems cruel. The statistical probability of your soul mate being born within the same country, speaking the same language, is higher than the probably of them being of an appropriate age for you assuming you’re even alive in the same century. There simply has to be more than one person you can end up with. The divorce rate is only 50%. Imagine how high it would be if each couple was pre-paired off.

That’s what I like about math. Statistics, probability, answers to the universe. There’s an answer to everything, a logical answer. Even if we haven’t figured it out yet, math solves everything–even romance.

I recently watched JP Rangaswarmi’s TEDtalk on information. It inspired me to write this post which includes a summary of what he talks about and my thoughts. At first, I thought it was all a bit silly. Seeing information as food? I could get the obvious analogies but I didn’t really see why looking at it from that perspective was of any use. But then I kept thinking a bit more…

I urge people to join in, comment with your paragraph of fiction to accompany the image. It doesn’t have to follow my story or reflect the same themes.

I thanked the waitress as she placed the brownie before me. My mother-in-law stared at it with pursed lips. The woman’s skin stretched over her petite frame, she was dry like a prune. I glanced at the ice cream as it began to melt, it hugged the brownie. “That looks,” my mother-in-law paused. “Creamy.” Heat flushed my cheeks and a nervous knot tightened in my stomach. I found it hard to keep my salivating tongue at bay. I wanted to eat the brownie but with my skeletal mother-in-law judging me I didn’t know if I could. “Hows the baby?” My in-law pried. “Still big?” The brownie was soaking up the cream like a sponge. A spark of anger energized my fingers. “Healthy,” I snapped and sunk my fork spitefully into the heart of my desert.
