What if we lived in a society where we were told who to marry? I know, I know, some scientist may argue that we already have that with arranged marriages. But think like this, what if maybe, babies were born with a tattoo, a mark, on their wrist. What if somewhere in the world, there was another baby that had the same mark?

What if you are born with the mark and only one other person was born to match you? And that person would be who you married? No more wasting time with dating, no more divorces. One shot that's bound to work.

I've had this idea for a while now, but none of my other colleagues think I could pull it off. But I think that if we ran some tests-simulations-with different people with different backgrounds, maybe we could see how that alternate reality would work.

I like my idea. I just need some help.

I have to be careful with my idea though. I don't want anyone to go and steal it. Admit, it's a good idea.

There's still much to think about.

After all, life is just a result of experiments performed by higher, more intelligent creatures.
