If I ever marry someone who's in law school I'm going to do the 2 cake thing for whether or not they pass the bar or not except one of the cakes has phoenix giving a thumbs up that says "yipppeeee" and the other one is miles frowning and it says "well at least your dad didn't die in an elevator"

Thinking about schrödinger's cat and how beautiful the unknown is. The cat may be dead or it may be alive but we don't know and it's so hard forcing yourself to learn. Being so scared to hear the news because it could either mean the amazing thing you've been hoping for and waiting for for so long or it's like a dagger to the chest and you don't want to open the box because what if it's not the answer you want. It's so much more comfortable living in that sense of suspense knowing that if you don't open it, you never have to face the possibilities of the bad news. Even if it could be the most amazing news. You're just too scared to face the pain that you'd rather never know.

But you have to open the box eventually, don't you? You can't get someone to open the box every time and tell you whether or not the cat has died, it's your job to open it yourself because it's your cat in your box and even though it hurts because you know it might hurt so much, you have to do it, don't you? How else can your life change? Change hurts so bad but everyone is constantly moving forward and if you're too scared to do so you're going to get left behind, and that's so much worse than hurting because if you don't open the box, you'll always end up with a dead cat whether or not it was dead before you pushed it away, scared to take the risk.

I know it hurts but that cat will die if you never open the box. I'm not talking about a cat in a box anymore but I never really was.

Okay interesting thing I just realized when talking about Epic with someone; Telemachus' advisor is Mentor, which is where the word mentor comes from. Later in the Odyssey, Athena transforms into Mentor to get Odysseus back on the throne of Ithaca. So Athena is literally a mentor to Odysseus...
