Here is a Dr. Quantum video about particles and waves on the macro scale and on the quantum scale. If you missed the previous Dr. Quantum video post, here is the link: Dr. Quantum Presents Quantum Physics Theory. Please watch and enjoy it.

Notice that in quantum physics, the observer is not impartial and actually affects the system it is observing. What does this tell you about the world? What does this tell you about the choices you make? Do you think you can change yourself and the world around you by changing your mind?

Please leave your thoughts in the comments.

Dr. Quantum is a cartoon character created by Dr. Fred Alan Wolf, Ph.D. in theoretical physics, for his comic book series to teach kids about quantum physics.
