I love how you are using your mind and the what for. However I think you will continue to confuse yourself and misunderstand if you keep thinking
about time lines and time travel. That isn't at all what happened as far as I can tell. There may well have been messages on a computer, and Deb may
well have gone places in her sleep (if she is real), and objects may well have disappeared and reappeared, but I don't believe there were any other
time lines or travel taking place.
I don't want to intimate that I understand or know all of the fine details, because I most certainly do not. I am not sure anyone actually does to be
honest.
However I do believe I have a pretty good working outline of the story as a whole. That is always subject to change with the addition of new or more
information but that is always a good thing, and I don't believe it will get too far off this mark in any case.
This story is about the mind, and the power the mind has. Or the potential for the power of the mind. (I am going to make things up now for the sake
of explanation, this isn't subtle hint dropping).
Imagine if an individual through practice of mindful and meditative states was able to travel outside of the "universe" and extension "reality" into
the Energy at rest state, otherwise known as Infinite, otherwise known as the Collective Conscious or "God Conscious". We already know it is possible
to tap into this, I do it multiple times a day. But I am talking about more than tapping into it, imagine if someone could exist there willfully. They
would be existing outside of all time and space, very similar to how 2109 explains the Tachyon Universe. Imagine if they would be capable of using
their conscious mind while there, in effect "thinking" while existing in the Infinite.
Now imagine they deigned to make a big deal about this experience. They are proud of what they have achieved, and wish to remind themselves when they
return to their Conscious body and existence for the purpose of explaining it to others. What if they did all of this with the intention of proving
that something exists outside of what we call Life and Reality, or prove that there is more to it than Athiests or even Thiests think exist. They
understand fully though that it is a very daunting challenge, but they are capable of thought on a level we can't possibly comprehend sitting here at
our computers. Being that they are outside of space and time, they can think about this problem for an entire eternity if they like. They can consult
the entire known universe and everything and everyone that ever has or ever will exist in it if they wish. They can run every scenario and build every
world they desire to test out different theories and hypothesis in order to choose one that will allow them to pass this information on to themselves
in a way they might understand.
The problem is that when they return to their conscious waking existence they will remember none of this experience, at all. They may have a nagging
feeling that something happened every once in a while but they won't have any idea what that is. They would already have known this when they were in
the "other" state and would have planned for that contingency. They would have devised a way that they could remind themselves through subtle clues
and symbols that may start to unlock memories and feelings. They may then start paying attention to other things around them and reading different
books and stories relating to the thing they feel they are searching for.
And then maybe they read a particular book that starts screaming these things at them instead of just whispering. They start getting overwhelmed with
these events and these screams so they decide to pay even more attention. Then all of a sudden something inside of them clicks and they start to
remember things they couldn't possibly remember, because they couldn't possibly happen. But they did.
That would be a pretty cool book, wouldn't it?

No you do not have permission to use this idea for your story or screen play or movie. I know you like it. Yes I will sue the pants off of you. This
is a general disclaimer, certainly not directed at my friend Dingdong or anyone specifically in this thread.
