"I realllllly am enjoying it but it‘s just so boring how historians of science insist on being totally condescending to philosophers challenging physicists. Heidegger - who influenced philosophical interpretations of quantum physics through his assertion of entanglement between subject and studied object - is at one point done away with derisively and idk this is just annnoying but otherwise great book thus far" — Jan 23, 2023 12:32PM

“The Weaver”
“My life is but a weaving
Between my God and me.
I cannot choose the colors
He weaveth steadily.
Oft’ times He weaveth sorrow;
And I in foolish pride
Forget He sees the upper
And I the underside.
Not ’til the loom is silent
And the shuttles cease to fly
Will God unroll the canvas
And reveal the reason why.
The dark threads are as needful
In the weaver’s skillful hand
As the threads of gold and silver
In the pattern He has planned
He knows, He loves, He cares;
Nothing this truth can dim.
He gives the very best to those
Who leave the choice to Him.”
