Biography:

Probably I was born and will die on the Earth.

I long to know the truth.

It is amazing that the truth our minds can pursue is not limited to the
Earth,
although our bodies are.

Among the approaches to the truth,
Physics is my favorite.

It is great that I can make a living with my favorite so far.

What a wonderful world !!
