Uncertainty
It’s surprising just how much things can change in one day. How you can go from one extreme feeling to the other.
Heisenberg’s principle says if you know how fast it’s going, you don’t know where it is and vice versa.
Well right now, I know how fast I’m going.
The amazing things I’ve learnt about life in the last two years are absolutely mind blowing. How little the majority of people know, and even those that do know still know actually nothing.
For instance, we still have no idea what mass actually is, why we’re here, why everything is exactly how it is.
Most of the world around you is not what it seems. Everything you see is anĀ interpretationĀ of a wave at a particular frequency. Everything you feel is but an electrical signal generated via the behaviour of atoms as they approach each other.
Hell one of the most shocking things is that nothing ever touches. As things get closer, the electrons get closer and closer and basically act like big repelling magnets the closer they are. There is only a finitely close distance you can get to anything.
That’s right, everytime you’ve ever held hands with anybody, hugged, kissed anyone, even slept in your bed. You never touched that person or your pillows, your duvet. Nothing ever touches anything.
What a lonely sentiment that is.
Even more lonely is that fact that also 99% of everything is nothing. Think once again of the humble atom and you’ll notice that 99% of the mass is concentrated in the TINY nucleus. but the atom is relatively quite large. Hence 99% of everything is empty space.
Not only that, relating to my last post, we are but one of so SO many things in this world.
It’s amazing how lonely we really are.
