1 The Start

Pros of being a god: I can do whatever I want, there is no set schedule, and I remember everything I ever saw in my past life. Cons of being a god: apparently, when given godly powers I just get a blank space to work with! No fascinating worlds, no people to watch over and be entertained by, not even a body to examine how perfect a god is. Just a big blank space with nothing in it. I can move around the space, but it's kind of pointless. There's nothing there so I am not even sure how I know I am moving.

I'm bored. Bored, bored, boreeddddddddd! Being a god is so boring! There's nothing to do but to imagine! Yawnnnnnnn. Who wants that!? I want entertainment. I want action. Where's my instant gratification machine from my past life!? Where are the endless cats!?

Wait. I'm dumb. I'm a god. My imagination makes reality. I don't need to be handed worlds to watch over! I can make those worlds myself. Who wants a dumb world anyway...

First, let's make myself a body. I'm tired of being just a point in an empty space. I will myself into a physical body, and then I am in my body from my past life. That's interesting. I remove the old scars on my hands and arms- they stay gone. Looking down, it seems everything is the same from how I left it. I guess my imagination just fills in the details with things I am familiar with in my memory. What happens if I make a new person?

A new person appears in front of my eyes - a nondescript white male with brown hair and brown eyes. Similar to me, except the eye color doesn't match. Interesting. Conjuring up a new person, a white female with blonde hair and blue eyes. Again. A dark-skinned man with black hair and brown eyes. Again and again I made people and erased them, until I was pretty sure of the patterns. Unless I tried to make someone intentionally, my brain generated a person based on how familiar I am with their features. Unless I tried otherwise, the generated people followed a distribution: the male to female ratio is about 1 to 1. Of the males, 80% of them were white, 15% asian, 3% black, and 2% mixed. Of the females, 85% of them were white, 10% were asian, 1% black, and 4% mixed. Man, that makes me feel bad. At least the male to female ratio is one to one, but the race ratio is not equal at all. I guess I was subconsciously biased in my past life.

I think I am done experimenting with making people today. Tomorrow I will experiment with changing my own body, but right now I need to sleep off this inexplicable feeling that I am a bad person.
