It is amazing what the human brain focuses on in the middle of the night.\u00a0 I am sure many of you suffer from chronic pain much worse than I do.\u00a0 Those who do know that, for whatever reason, it seems worse at night – right?\u00a0 It is pretty cool though, cause you can do an awful lot of thinking, daydreaming, writing, and thought experiments while everybody else is asleep.\u00a0 I ponder – a lot.\u00a0 Ponder is one of my favorite words in the English language – I ain’t real sure why.\u00a0 Maybe it reminds me of fishing…\u00a0 I like to ponder on and research where old proverbs or old wives’ tales originate:\u00a0 and, which came first, the chicken or the egg…\u00a0 For example, you and I know that our 911 emergency system was already created and had been in use for a long time before the terrorist attacks of 9\/11\/2001.\u00a0 However, in 150 years, no one alive will know that – at least not from personal experience.\u00a0 If our country and its government is still around then, some immoral leader could have “alternative” facts that his party or group created the system AFTER 9\/11\/01 to prevent future attacks and assist during times of crisis.\u00a0 The same thing applies for Twitter and the saying “A little bird told me”.\u00a0 That is how so much history gets screwed up in the first place – it is written by the victors after all.\u00a0 Winston Churchill has a quote that says, “History will be kind to me<\/em>, for I intend to write it\u201d.<\/p>\n

This post started with the thought “the devil’s in the details”.\u00a0 In trying to find the origin of the saying, I found that the saying “God is in the details” is more prevalent?\u00a0 Which brought me to the great divide of both science and religion…\u00a0 Hang in there with me – it may be a bumpy ride for a bit.\u00a0 I am sure most of you know who Stephen Hawking is – I am thankful and blessed to have been able to share the planet at the same time with such a brilliant man.\u00a0 Those who don’t know who he is, while alive on this planet, he was widely regarded as the most important mind in the quantum mechanics branch of physics.\u00a0 He lived his entire adult life suffering from ALS, and was in a wheelchair for most of it – but his mind never suffered at all.\u00a0 Unfortunately, he was an atheist.\u00a0 I have always heard – and it is a common saying in religious studies – that no one dies an atheist.\u00a0 In his case, he very well may have – and I will tell you why.\u00a0 Quantum mechanics, the branch of physics that studies at the sub-atomic level, is a mixture of chaos, voodoo, black magic, guesses, and shoulder shrugs.\u00a0 Google CERN (where the internet began BTW), boson higgs (aka “God”) particle, string theory, and super symmetry.\u00a0 Instead of getting simpler, it (quantum mechanics) keeps adding quarks and sparks and boogers and God only knows what else – almost in the same manner as counting numbers to infinity.\u00a0 Super symmetry establishes a cousin for every particle we have – whether we can see it or not.\u00a0 \u00a0Nothing is absolute – things can be in two places at once.\u00a0 Nothing is beautiful and graceful.\u00a0 Nothing is governed in the same manner as the rest of the universe.\u00a0It is complicated and confusing.\u00a0 Einstein’s beautiful and simple general relativity equation E=mc^2\u00a0does not apply here. I did find it quite ironic, and honestly wonder if it went against Dr Hawking’s wishes, to have this read at his funeral…<\/p>\n

I mean, at the very least, they could have just played this at the funeral.\u00a0 There ain’t no telling how many folks have heard this song since the 60’s and have no idea whatsoever that it is lifted (almost) verbatim out of the exact same passage above.\u00a0 Hmmmm.\u00a0 Which makes me wonder…\u00a0 I wonder if Solomon is still getting his royalty checks in the mail from it?\u00a0 With all these digital free streaming services, it’s dang near impossible for a songwriter to make a living anymore,,,<\/p>\n
