On 16 September, at around 2 AM, I was going through the "Sent" emails in my Gmail to look for a report I had sent during my master's. I couldn’t find it, but what I found instead pleasantly surprised me.
On 13 April 2014, I had sent four papers by David Mukamel to my friend—he must have requested them. One of the papers I sent was the same one my advisor suggested to me in relation to the project I am working on this January.
I’ve seen this kind of thing happen many times in my life—people and ideas resurfacing after years. It feels like a long arc slowly closing, reminding me how strangely time weaves things back together.
