Is Movement In the Mind

I move around the kitchen. I move around the hall. And then around the bathroom. I move from wall to wall. But has anyone considered If we ever move around? As images within our mind are always inward bound! Could we be stationary Never moving from a spot? Our consciousness determined by some devilish robot! Am I the only player? Do I actually exist? In a universe where I’m the one, no one will ever miss.

If a tree falls in the forest... That and movement in the mind --- two eternal philosophical riddles. Thanks, RT. ~ gw

There's an alternative to the 'If a tree falls in the forset' and it's to do with men. 'If a man has an opinion and there's no women anywhere nearby to hear it. Is he still wrong?' Thanks for the comment Gershon. Best...Ron :)
