Amateur astronomer; one who loves the science of astronomy

Astronomy gives man the ability to understand his self as an integral part of the universe we are a part of. That understanding gives me great personal satisfaction and comfort. There are others who find the same satisfaction, joy and comfort as I, while still others absolutely reject the entire concept of any connection with the universe. A close approximation to quantum mechanics, perhaps....it takes the one to create the conditions for the other. Regardless, I am a member of the former attempting to understand the latter and help him to understand, and cope, if and when he changes his mind.

And when it all becomes a little too serious, I pull out my telescope and recall why I do it to begin with.
