Richard Feynman was an amazing character mastering physics, thinking, life, and as we shall soon see, love. Richard and Arline Greenbaum were soul mates. They were a perfect symbiotic pair, each completing the other. They shared the love we all seek.
Richard Feynman’s Love Letter to His Wife, Sixteen Months After Her Death。
October 17, 1946
D’Arline,
I adore you, sweetheart.
I know how much you like to hear that — but I don’t only write it because you like it — I write it because it makes me warm all over inside to write it to you.
It is such a terribly long time since I last wrote to you — almost two years but I know you’ll excuse me because you understand how I am, stubborn and realistic; and I thought there was no sense to writing.
But now I know my darling wife that it is right to do what I have delayed in doing, and that I have done so much in the past. I want to tell you I love you. I want to love you. I always will love you.
I find it hard to understand in my mind what it means to love you after you are dead — but I still want to comfort and take care of you — and I want you to love me and care for me. I want to have problems to discuss with you — I want to do little projects with you. I never thought until just now that we can do that. What should we do. We started to learn to make clothes together — or learn Chinese — or getting a movie projector. Can’t I do something now? No. I am alone without you and you were the “idea-woman” and general instigator of all our wild adventures.
When you were sick you worried because you could not give me something that you wanted to and thought I needed. You needn’t have worried. Just as I told you then there was no real need because I loved you in so many ways so much. And now it is clearly even more true — you can give me nothing now yet I love you so that you stand in my way of loving anyone else — but I want you to stand there. You, dead, are so much better than anyone else alive.
I know you will assure me that I am foolish and that you want me to have full happiness and don’t want to be in my way. I’ll bet you are surprised that I don’t even have a girlfriend (except you, sweetheart) after two years. But you can’t help it, darling, nor can I — I don’t understand it, for I have met many girls and very nice ones and I don’t want to remain alone — but in two or three meetings they all seem ashes. You only are left to me. You are real.
My darling wife, I do adore you.
I love my wife. My wife is dead.
Rich.
PS Please excuse my not mailing this — but I don’t know your new address.
博尔顿反川是因为川普要撤军,military complex战争发财狂们的指示。我不明白的是川普为什么会选他,我只有一个判断,而且比较确定,川普一直是摇摆或者是想妥协好好当总统的。但是他那样想恐怕只能是天真可以解释了。也有说是川普在下一盘大棋,但是选的那些人,包括新的防长,实在让我无法相信什么大棋,我判断是摇摆,想获得一些支持,包括接受woodward那么多次采访,明知道不会是帮他的。我看到的是川普的脆弱和侥幸,也就是他并不是一个坚定的战士,想左右逢源,最后现在被逼的这样。即便现在,我还是感到他还在侥幸。not a real strong man. 老实说,如果换成我,我不会在乎连任,肯定早就如你期许那样主动出击了,以总统的权力抓这帮人,NSA证据确凿。但是他显然没有选择主动出击,一直在玩连任的游戏,结果带来了美国现在的状况。林肯那时就抓了好多人。
另外一个关于民调。2016年,那时都没有把很多沉默的川普支持者算进去,这次不同,各家都调整了模式,都不会再犯傻丢人。现在看辩论,据说拜顿已经获得所有的问题,精心准备呢。如果29号的辩论,拜顿表现不是老年痴呆,基本混过去的话,川普基本输定了。唯一看10月的surprise了。In any case, 拜顿赢或者输,美国都会进入共产主义革命,左派绝不会再让川普干四年。
