The Uncertainty Principle: You Can Not Predict the Position AND the Momentum of a Couple
The Quantum Mechanics of the Heart
One consequence of the basic quantum formalism is the uncertainty principle. In its most familiar form, this states that no preparation of a quantum particle can imply simultaneously precise predictions both for a measurement of its position and for a measurement of its momentum.[19][20]

Have you ever looked at a couple and thought, “Why the hell do they stay together??!!” Or, can you admit, in your hubris, that you’ve entertained the thought that you’d be better for one of the two than the partner they’re with?
As I look over my life, I can remember words that were said at, what I can describe now as ‘the right moment’, by influential people in my life. That the words were memorably impactful because they were said at a moment, out of my control, when I was receptive to and able to internalize them.
