Quantum mechanics/physics proves how little we know about anything. It also boggles my mind what little we do know about subatomic particles.
I've always been a cynic who believed based on the "if I may see it, it must be real" philosophy. That's worked well for me on large targets (no pun intended).
Wish I were not so old that witnessing unimaginable discoveries were a possibility. I want to see manipulation of the fabric of space/time, allow us to discover multiple universes up close and personal, if theory is to be believed.
For now, the universal void between my ears is the only thing I may manipulate, with some difficulty.
Don't worry about being a cynic. George Bernard Shaw said, "What is the use of straining after an amiable view of things, when a cynical view is most like to be the true one?" With age, one becomes unable to manipulate that void between one's ears and has to learn to just sit back and watch what happens at a rapid pace. We will see a new universe soon enough.
