Monday energy—
"It makes me happier and more secure to think that I do not have to plan and manage everything for myself, that I am only a sword made sharp to smite the unclean forces. Grant, oh Lord, that I may not break as I strike! Let me not fall from thy hand!”

This is what radiation looks like.
A piece of uranium in a chamber filled with cooled ethanol vapor creates visible condensation trails as the alpha particles it emits collide with and ionize the gas molecules.

In 1958, in Palisades, New Jersey, a performer named Jimmy Armstrong, known as The Dwarf Clown, entertained the audience at Clyde Beatty Circus. This moment was captured by photographer Bruce Davidson as part of his renowned 'Circus' series.
"He was standing alone outside the tent, smoking a cigarette," Davidson said upon seeing Armstrong for the first time. Dressed in a tuxedo and a top hat, he held a small bouquet of paper flowers and stood there pensively, immersed in the privacy of his inner thoughts."
"He seemed to know that it was the inner moment I was drawn to and not his clown face or physical appearance. We became friends, although we seldom spoke to one another."
"I found something in Jimmy that was more than loneliness, it was a story about surviving" - Bruce Davidson.
