At 14, I had big dreams. I said, 'Show me the world and how it moves so I can lift it!'
Where we'll go, I don't know... but I'll be there till the end,
Wonderin' this and that: how to live, be a friend?
...
Walk straight, talk plain, and do what you gotta do...
To break through, be true...
And never lose you!

When I was in my teens I read books about "the nature of time and space" and I thought I wanted to be a "theoretical physicist". But then going through college, I was told that wasn't a precise job. Sure, there were theorists and then there were experimentalists, but high level physics work was separated into choices like Solid State, Optics, Nuclear, Particle. I wasn't really interested in any narrow path.
I wanted to answer Big Questions. What is Time? What is Thought? None of those fields really aimed to answer what I was interested in. What I wanted to be can be better described as "Natural Philosopher", the title given to scientists before the 20th century. Their motivation I felt was to understand the most basic questions about existence and our role in the universe around us.

I think people should try to be the best so everyone can follow. Not be the best to take things from others. Best means nothing if you make other people worse to win.
It is right, but this society is not right and it is a struggle to fight the wrong things with no power
This is what I want to do with my life: understand the right things, see what is truth, and explain to people. Give people power to think.
There is a 1 in a million chance to succeed.
But as long as I have a 1, it doesn't matter how big the second number is.
I am happy.
Happiness is hope and pursuing what you believe in.
Thank you my friend, Duck.
