I find myself stuffing a lot of things. Not bc I want to - no, I would gladly let it flow like a river - but, bc I have to. No choice.

As a result, I find myself asking myself questions I know from experience lead to darker places. Questions like:

Possible trigger:


I know I'm sinking fast. I want it to stop. I keep trying. There's nobody to help me.

I can't say for you, but my life experiences have taught me to follow the teachings of another disabled scientist. I am talking about Stephen Hawking.

Personally, the movie The Theory of Everything changed me so much. I am much more scientific than I used to be. In fact I want to, if I can, give a theory of everything, as both Einstein and Hawking, the greatest minds as far as the last century is concerned, wanted to but could not give due to their limitations.

Here is the quote.

I will look at the quote but Stephen Hawking is one I do not like - he tried to convince the masses that "something comes from nothing" which of course makes absolutely no sense.

I am Christian - so the "something that comes from nothing" to me, is not by chance.

Anyway ... I will look and then comment again. ❤

By the way, I'm sorry if I offended, not trying to .. just explaining my view, I do respect yours. We all have our own views and are allowed them .. in fact, should have them. It's how we learn n grow. ❤

Now, let me look..

I can stand behind the part that says "while there is life, there is hope" .. but for different reasons than he states. ❤

It's totally fine to have conflicting views. In fact in science, it's said that "There is no final theory and no unquestioned authority among scientists."
I totally respect your views. The above quote has nothing to do with religion (scientific thinking tells us there is no supernatural force) but I am trying to say conflicting views is what makes science, science.
Please take a look at the clip of the movie.

Of course, Dr.Hawking by no means restricted his thinking to academics.

"There should be no boundary, to human endeavor." Don't you think trying to live a normal life despite the obstacles thrown at you, is an endeavor too? Dr.Hawking says that there is no boundary, meaning we should never give up hope.

Of course, it's not that I take his word for every single moment of the day. I am having a hard time deciding what I really want to do (about my career), whether or not should I get a doctorate and then research, cause honestly I struggle a lot in the practical aspect of school. If I can't get through, I can't make a breakthrough. Which would make my work and my life useless anyway.

But I really think, if we set our mind on the right things that are achievable, we will get them.

When I told you I was, I meant it ❤. I just don't agree with his reasoning. I can go into all of my thoughts.. but the rules here would then end with either my comment or post being removed .. so I am choosing not to. ❤

But like I said - I agree with the final statement.
