"As long as there is a universe then I will live. I live through everything. Although I don't get to see everything like the Doctor does." she looked over at him and smiled lightly. "But I've seen many things. And I am much older than our silly Doctor here." she nudged him playfully. "Wait." said Donna backing up, "Doctor how old are you?" His eyes got a bit wide, "Ahh 945." "Right. Course you are." She turned to Pandora, "Then....how old are you?" "Well you see....I'm..."she stalled a bit. "How. Old. Are. You?" Donna asked seriously. The Doctor opened his mouth to speak and Pan shushed him smiling. "It's okay." She turned to Donna, "Well if you're correct about the year, then I'm approximately....ten billion years old." she stared up at Donna with quiet eyes. And Donna stared back. "Are you joking? Are you trying to mess around with me? That's it yeah? Mess with the new girl. Well I'm not having it! How old are you really? Tell me!" Donna started breathing heavily. The Doctor touched Donna lightly on the shoulder, "She's being serious. As soon as there were intelligent beings she was alive. She is always alive, always here to fix what goes wrong and help those who need it. Pandora will be here forever." Pandora was silent through the exchange while watching the Doctor. When he finished she stood and walked to Donna. "I am old. So very old. Old beyond most beliefs. But this is what I am. I am a time lord, I am a human. I am a being created by the unknown power that governs everything. I know things before they happen in my timeline. And I know when changes have been made to the current line. My life is long, the visions are painful, and I become lonely as everyone else I know dies out. But I remember everything. Everything that I have ever experienced is stored in my mind. I cannot forget. Ever. I've learned that now. Because I wanted to forget. So badly I wanted to just forget that what I considered my home was gone forever, that the person I loved was dead....." she took a deep breath then smiled up at Donna, "I was weak. I had been holding in the pain for too long and had to let it out. My mind couldn't deal with it and so created a brand new world for me to be happy and normal in. I became lost in my own mind, unable to escape. I didn't even know that I was there." Pandora looked at Pandora sharply. "I am the one true Oracle. I know the truth of the past and foretell of the future. I am forever. And I am Pandora." “My existence is relative.” she said slowly. “As long as there is a universe then I will live. I live through everything. Although I don’t get to see everything like the Doctor does.” she looked over at him and smiled lightly. “But I’ve seen many things.

“Wait.” said Donna backing up, “Doctor how old are you?”
His eyes got a bit wide, “Ahh 945.”
“Right. Course you are.” She turned to Pandora, “Then….how old are you?”
“Well you see….I’m…”she stalled a bit.

Like, you needed to do something really good to keep going on doing it. You die, and maybe, if God deemed you worthy enough, deciding you were doing good things with it, he'd give you another go. And if you screwed up, he stuck you in the ground. I believe that existence is earned. Like, you needed to do something really good to keep going on doing it.

Everything you do for yourself you can see if it can help other people, you are happy for other peopke and you r ego doesnt get in the way. true existence isnt about where we are on earth or why we are, truely.. .we are here and we all know in the deepest part of our selbves that we are here for others. to make a difference, even if its just to smile at somone who we wountdnt have normally. i know that ive found out afterwards that someone i smiled at had a better day because of it. or even just shareing empathy and sympathy, for shared emotions are allways easier to bear and warmers to be with. I think that thinking about life after death takes us out of our emotions and the present moment. the present is a gift to us. we should nt look a gift horse in the mouth he he we shoudl treat the present as something delicate and lovely and vibrant and alive at the same time. its there for us, we shoudd be there for it; how can we even know what life after death means. None of it is relevant, honestly. life is life where you live in . in the moment. existence is to shine your own special light of compassionand love into the world in the present moment always. i know that i exist because of the love i feel around me . i think that existance is meaningful when you are kind to other people, when you care for them as well as yourself and when you don’t worry about whether you exist or not but whether your life is meaning ful for other s and whether you are making an impact, even a small diffence in people’s lives .

He looked at the next building over, judging the distance between them. The top floor was about two stories below him. Behind him, he heard the groaning of the fire escape ladder as Steve pulled himself up and over the edge. "I've got you now, you little bastard!" He shouted, his voice hoarse with madness. Ian felt goosebumps wash over his skin as the first raindrops began to fall. He took a breath and backed up a few steps. It was about time he learned how to fly.

I really exist? You're not... lying? You could be lying. Maybe you are. Existence is such a silly thing. You're so funny. Stop being funny. You're not being funny? I exist as much as you do? I'm not a figment of your widespread imagination? Excuse me while I go die from too much laughter. Wait a minute–I exist? I really exist? You’re not… lying? You could be lying. Maybe you are.
