We, people, are basically the same as the Physics vs Quantum Physics dilemma. From the outside and above, we're predictable; we can be fit into statistics and psychiatric diagnoses. From the inside, and particularly from our own perspective, we are immeasurable and improbable; living every day with the potential of breaking from pattern and predictable behaviour. We have a personal experience and story, we have memories; hopes, dreams, needs. Our problems seemingly can always be traced back to our inability to see our "Quantum selves" - and as if that wasn't bad enough, we are surrounded by governments, corporations, cultures, family, and friends, who "collapse our wave function" every time they look at or think about us. We are collapsed back to the statistic and the psychiatric diagnosis - their memories about us, expectations of us, emotional connections to us. But what to do in a word that requires us to live primarily by expectations when dealing with others? How do we know when the other is engaging their "Quantum self" and how do they know when we're engaging our own?
Love and communication is all I can imagine.
