The Unsung Hero of Quantum Physics

Tomonaga Shin’ichirō



Spent much of his working life as a theoretical physicist working quantum electrodynamic theory and won the Nobel Prize in 1965. Unlike the Einsteins, Paulis, Rutherfords, Feynmans and the like, Shini'chiro has not been hailed to the point of immortality. Nevertheless, his legacy still stands.

Dear Gareth "Douchebag Motherf****er" Cliff

Listen Mate,

So you think that all or the majority of the 22-year-old women out there are only interested in lying on their backs with their legs open. Listen here, you nutter I am a 22-year-old woman myself and I can tell you that there is a lot more going on in my mind-space than the thoughts of having sex. You loser! In your wretched porn-infested mind, all you see is young women with their legs open anyway to the point where all you are really capable of seeing (or perceiving) when you catch the sight of a young lady is her lying back with her legs open. We are not the ones with the problem, it's you you diabolical beastly idiot!

This brings me to another point, about how foolish people (like yourself), fail to view women and girls as complex beings with deep minds, souls, hearts and intellects. You fail to see women as people and reduce them to nothing more than their genitalia. In other words, a woman is either a chaste virgin or the whore that you imagine 22-year-old women like myself are. Well guess what bozo, many of us are not whores. We are gifted, intelligent, hard-working colleges students, career women and for those of us that are mature and strong enough, mothers too. So back off with your unilateral one-dimensional thinking and bite your tongue before you say something you will regret.

You should count your lucky stars too Gareth, because your white privilege will probably help you keep your job unlike the unfortunate Khuli Roberts lost her job entirely.

Love, peace and happiness.

But honestly, get a life. You're utterly pathetic and a complete bore in any case.

Sincerely,

the Unspoken Word

Gossip Withdrawal

I love the feeling of not being in the know-how about what celebs are up to which is why I avoid radio and TV like the plague for the majority of the year. Our culture is so obsessed and fixated on the things these so called famous people say and do. I will not for a second say that I am not one of these people. I too have spent hours of my life watching E! Entertainment Channel and following up on the latest gossip being dished up by Sal Masekela but you come to a point of realization where you begin to wonder why you care so much about the lives of these people who care little for your own existence. It's quite silly actually.

For this reason, I vow to take a serious break from all celeb-related news, gossip and fanfare. We'll see how long this one lasts!

Understanding lies at the Root of Healing

What I have come to know for sure is that all people want and yearn to be loved. That is fact and not speculation. When that thirst is not quenched it turns people angry, butter, spiteful, aggressive, tyrannical and always willing to hurt someone else to transfer the pain. To hurt the way they have been hurt. It's true "misery loves company", rather I cry with you than alone and my injury provides certainty of that.

As much as understanding and having empathy for your fellow human being heals. Not understanding or trying to understand destroys even more. One reason why I believe empathy should be at the cornerstone of every person on this planet's principles.
