Modernized parable

I was orgazining spices and realized I had not labled one that looked like parsley, but could I be sure?

Instantly, I thought of the parable of the wheat and the tares and how at one point they were almost undescernable so they would be allowed to grow together until maturity. I thought of a brilliant realization regarding spouses that I had not had and it was no doubt lucky.

Speaking of luck, I decided to make lasagna which called for parsley, so I sprinkled the dried crumbs on it. Then it dawned on me that if the parable had been taught today it might likely be the parable of the parsley and thyme. Now, I mention that I was lucky, the unmarked herb was infact parsley, or things might have tasted a bit odd with too much thyme (at least it was not on my hands)... Hah hah. But, I thought of Elder Holand's story of taking the wrong path with his son. It was so that they could be SURE of the correct path. The herbs are nearly indistinguishable, to me before baking, but I would have known it was not correct after baking with it.

He's not you

List of desirable traits he could be possessing. He might be all of this, but he's not you.

The idea is that I am not in love with the parts, I am in love with a being that is you.

He could have every trait you possess, and refine the way I want, but still the fact remains: He is not you.

Movie Idea - brief not fleshed out yet.

In the future a safe enough distance away in time, a cataclysmic event wipes out most of the earth's inhabitants, minus a few who were in a cryogenic sleep. They become those who are called forefathers. Mankind shows his resilience through not only survivng what would have killed them all, but they flourish in a new world. Part of them that is religious tries to explain things in a spiritual way, but science finds they are atom and thus debunks, unfortunately, all of that subculture's beliefs. But, one particularly brilliant scientist realizes that his brilliance comes from a knowledge connection to something outside of himself and he leads the world in scientific discovery finally admitting inspiration in his seeming coincidence. So, our culture, dividedby catastrophe ends up precisely where it was somehow reinventing the same things, which suggests (after a piece of our past is discovered) that there is a greater force molding our culture. Now, the ultimate discovery was pieces of the internet in the form of YouTube vlogs. They, the videos, are discovered and later revered and mass produced so that every man has access to his past. Because of how scientifically things were proven to be correct and the same, the recovered videos become not only seen by all, but heralded as prophetic. The videos become a type of link to the past which when carefully studied reveals patterns for our future.  New culture of people named oracles arises. They are most familiar with the phophecies and interpret the meanings for others. Studying the past makes us future savvy so the videos are seen as supernatural and curious.
