Don't you wonder that you're just a tiny speck in this whole wide universe with your own miniscule problems that don't even affect the greater good?

Not as much as I used to. Bad decisions put me on a path which I hadn't intended to take and now I'm a 'conforming citizen', with a rather arbitrary and unimportant job. But such is life, and I've nobody to blame other than myself.

I wanted to push the boundaries of scientific knowledge. I used to live and breathe maths and physics; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say I was in love with the universe. Part of me still is, but I'm too wrapped up in my present life to pursue those dreams for now.
