The truth always turns out to be simpler than you thought.

Nobody ever figures out what life is all about, and it doesn't matter. Explore the world. Nearly everything is really interesting if you go into it deeply enough.

No! Not for a second! I immediately began to think how this could have happened. And I realized that the clock was old and was always breaking.

I never made any supernatural connection, not even for a second. I just wanted to figure out how it happened.
