dear friends,

food for thought...

are we alone in the universe?

given the immensity of the cosmos, a mathematical impossibility. will we ever come to know we are not alone? it took a lot of hard work (and self-sacrifice) by copernicus, kepler, and galileo just to get western society to finally step "up to the edge" and see that the blue planet is most definitely not flat nor does it act as the axis around which all things celestial swing.

today we don't seem to be ready to accept anything other than the myth of being alone.

images from the space hubble. when i look at them i believe we are far from alone in this beautiful universe that we are just a drop of water in a vast ocean. the images seem alive when you pan them.

how big is the universe? are we alone?

lighteye,

i have always believed that we are not alone. i also believe that we are getting closer to the time when our neighbors will recognize that we have evolved enough to understand that what we do know is based solely upon the limited knowledge of the physics that we have used to create our world. i am looking forward to the day when we as a planet accept and embrace that there is much more to know and that we have been very self centered by choice. it is time to let go of the child like ways that we exist using, and grow into mature beings that use what we do know to further our learning and understanding of what is all around us.
