Life calls the tune, we dance. - John Galsworthy
Our fate is written in the stars or so the story goes, but it might not be entirely true. You see quantum mechanics sheds a different perspective on life. Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle states that there is a fundamental limit to what we can know. For example, in terms of particles, the more we know about a particle’s position, the less we know about their momentum, therefore we cannot precisely measure it. Additionally, any small interference can cause particles to behave differently, meaning our choices affect the outcome! If this sounds confusing don’t worry, even quantum physicists find it strange. This information confirms there’s many things we cannot fully predict. We all make choices, yet there’s always circumstances beyond our control. Cause and effect, fate and free will, where does one begin and the other end? No reason to feel frightened, next time you find yourself staring at the stars, wave to the heavenly dragon Tianlong (天龙) and ask for some insight.
