“Some people say light is waves, and some say it’s particles, so I bet light is some in-between thing that’s both wave and particle depending on how you look at it. Am I right?” “YES, BUT YOU SHOULDN’T BE!”

    My thought exactly but isn’t the common center still inside the sun?

              Get in line! It’s you, everyone and the rest of the universe!

              Orbiting…

              Slowly watching…

              Slowly descending towards the crushing abyss…

              Fast or slow, near or far, there is inevitably only Mother…

              And the complete annihilation of her touch

      The common centre is the galaxy they both orbit spiral around together.

      Then, the galaxy moves around some other point along with other galaxies.

      Then, a bunch of aliens are playing with marbles.
