Changing The World One Thought At A Time.

One day I went up to my mom and I said, ‘Mom, can I have permission to build a 2.3-million electron-volt atom smasher – a betatron – in the garage?’ And my mom stared at me, and she said, ‘Sure. Why not? And don’t forget to take out the garbage.’

One day I went up to my mom and I said, ‘Mom, can I have permission to build a 2.3-million electron-volt atom smasher – a betatron – in the garage?’ And my mom stared at me, and she said, ‘Sure. Why not? And don’t forget to take out the garbage.’

Here’s to the moms who believe in their children’s dreams, no matter how outlandish they might appear!

Happy Mother’s Day!

I believe it is truly possible to change the world, one thought at a time. If anything I have written connects with you, please share it with others. My goal in creating this is to help others with ideas that are thought-provoking, stimulating and cathartic.
