to the end of the universe and back




My last post had a gorgeous picture about the universe,

I have a couple more to share, I don't know who either painted or took them.

But they fascinate me.

Open your eyes to new horizons today, whatever you are doing, think big, think win,
think..yes you can...

Someday I will create a painting such as these, but I am currently in the middle of a jungle scene, so I'd better "whack" my way through the vegetation with my paint brush and finish it.

Until then I will enjoy looking and dreaming, and as in my crazycritter blog, be ruminating on my space painting :-)

A suggestion if you are "stuck"
Set your eyes on a star, aim for it, you may hit a tree, but if you only set your eyes on the tree, you may never get off the ground ( I received this chinese proverb in a chinese fortune cookie , some 30 years ago, and I've carried it with me to remind me to keep looking up...

WOW, no matter what ...no one except God knows tommorrow, so no matter what obstacle, even health seems to be getting you down. Look up ( one of my favorite Bible verses) Look to the Mountains, from whence cometh your help, you help cometh from God.

I can attest to the fact, even if a Dr tells you...you will never get "better", improve, etc...that isn't necessarily so... one day at a time and why not pie a'la mode and go for it :-)

Creation... Let there be Light...

(unknown photographer or artist)
I was fascinated with this picture, I love the colors, the beauty, the lift to the imagination.

I was also fascinated with this recent forward from a friend. I clicked on the link and listened to the audio reading in the King James version, I closed my eyes and sensed a great balm of peace upon listening to the WORDS...of chapter one of Genesis. I liked the voice of the reader, I am not sure if the reader is the same for other translations. I happen to enjoy the reg king James version the best. I plan to listen every day.

I have read through the entire Bible ,many times and I find it intriguing to listen my way through , on a daily basis. Why not join me ?

I created a special file specifically for this link , so I can readily click on it, anytime I wish
