the world around keith

I am Keith. Everything around me is the world. It's not just below my feet. I'm talking the whole of existence here. That's the world. It's a lot bigger than me. It's a lot bigger than you and everybody else.

That's why it's around me and not the other way around. So...I'll show you the world around me, how I see it.

“With every passing hour our solar system comes forty-three thousand miles closer to globular cluster 13 in the constellation Hercules, and STILL there are some misfits who continue to insist that there is no such thing as progress.”

“

Now, my own suspicion is that the universe is not only queerer than we suppose, but queerer than we CAN suppose.

I have read and heard many attempts at a systematic account of it, from materialism and theosophy to the Christian system or that of Kant, and I have always felt that they were much too simple.

I suspect that there are more things in heaven and earth that actually CANNOT be dreamed of by us, in any philosophy. That is the reason why I have no philosophy myself - and that must be my excuse for dreaming.

”

— John Burden Sanderson Haldane (1892-1964)

“Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.”

Almost all problems we have are temporary and transient.
Solutions, on the other hand, can be permanent.

Let’s work on solutions, solve these problems, and make life better.
