I’ve decided to join medicine and become a doctor, while loving Physics to the core and after dreaming to be a physics professor for a few years. Why?
My liking of Physics is just fascination. I read every new theories presented in the subject, but believe few. I may get an MSc or PhD in Physics, but what if I don’t trust the subject I like?
In the period that Einstein was active as a professor, one of his students came to him and said: “The questions of this year’s exam are the same as last years!” “True,” Einstein said, “but this year all answers are different.”
I don’t want to risk my life and learn this western science.
I just want to live a life that can be of any use to others, (and comfortable to me) and I believe being a doctor can perfectly fit my needs.

As you might have noticed, social media these days prioritize engagement and doesn’t really let people build relationship with an audience. One way to take back some control is to directly be connected to your favorite authors, artists, etc through e-mail. And that’s what subscribing to my newsletter is about, too. I’m intentionally staying away from substack (which is susceptible to enshittification), and self-hosting the newsletter. What that means is also that the mails could land in spam.

Your observations on physics are intriguing – to say. I once asked a doctor, “Some one said that the job of a doctor is to amuse the patient while nature cures the disease. Is this true?” And I got the reply that it could be true, at least in the Indian scenario! So, not much consolation there either. I think that individuals ought to make a difference to fields and not vice versa.

A part of my latest decision’s credit comes to you. Since that chat I have racked my brains and found that I truly love medicine and was not liking to go into it only because my father is a doctor, and he is angry when patients come to him during late-nights. (but, I came to know that it is due to his age, earlier he used to go to patients home even in boats at near midnight).
Then I understood that this is a field of purity and passion.
