ject in Topeka is a square, then we can assume the object<br />
in Sri Lanka is a square. Say the object in Topeka wants<br />
to be a circle, that information is instantly transmitted to<br />
the object in Sri Lanka. Both become circles. Ok, let’s<br />
just stop right here.<br />
In this overly simplified explanation, the information<br />
must travel faster than the speed of light, which is impossible.<br />
Since we’re talking about light, we must acknowledge<br />
that light exists as both, a particle and a wave. So<br />
this information, what is it? It’s not either. Herein lies the<br />
conundrum. The whole thing gets much more complex<br />
once we add color to the shapes, but that’s a whole other<br />
article! Anyway, one example I was reading used a pair<br />
of twins, separated on either side of the planet, as an example.<br />
He started out by talking about “Twin Telepathy”,<br />
saying he didn’t know if it was real or not. I had to write<br />
him immediately to tell him without a doubt, it is real.<br />
I know I’ve often written about my twin experiences<br />
with Billy. We used to say the same sentences at the same<br />
time, have the same dreams, write the same songs when<br />
we were apart, etc. There are two instances that exemplify<br />
this quantum entanglement theory that were brought<br />
to mind, though. One time I was living in the Keys, Billy<br />
was in Alaska. That’s pretty far apart! That year, we sent<br />
our mom the exact same Christmas card. Exactly The<br />
Same! We didn’t find out until we both went to visit her<br />
the following summer, because who goes to New Jersey<br />
in the winter time? Was that an example of quantum entanglement?<br />
What are the odds? The other time was when<br />
we were apart for a few years. I was traveling around the<br />
country a lot and Billy was in Ohio. We had no contact<br />
with each other at this time. This was before cell phones<br />
were ubiquitous but pay phones were all the rage. Every<br />
so often I would call my dad to check in. Every time I did,<br />
for three years, Billy would call him within minutes. My<br />
dad thought we were setting this up.<br />
As identical twins, we were always aware that this<br />
cosmic thing was there, we just didn’t know how to explain<br />
it or say what it is. Perhaps it’s quantum entanglement<br />
at its basic level. Perhaps quantum entanglement<br />
can show us how we are all connected and tied into the<br />
universe as well. Maybe the photons of Billy are floating<br />
in the universe somewhere prompting me to write this.<br />
All I know is, I’ve always believed in quantum entanglement,<br />
and I’m sure there are many twins out there that<br />
would agree.<br />
