August 21, 2017..Eclipse

          Well today was a day unlike any other we have had in a long time. A solar Eclipse has occurred and apparently it was spectacular. I say apparently because from my location here in California, there really wasn't much to see. But if you were in the zone that is called the Path of Totality then you saw the darkness when the moon blocked out the sun. I understand why people are excited about it, after all this doesn't occur very often and it is happening up in space where most people don't really pay much attention to.... however I just don't get the hype that it came with it and the merchandise that people wanted to sell.  I guess a part of me is bummed that I wasn't in a location to see it but then I also think that because I appreciate the moon and the stars on a regular basis anyway when most people don't that it has become not worth while for me.....that and I am too poor to be traveling other states to see a few moments of darkness. I also will admit there is a part of me that really hates trends. The more people are into it, the less I am...But what ever the reason for my lack of caring about this  particular eclipse I do think it is something to marvel in.This planet is amazing, The Universe is amazing. I know, that sounds very contradictory doesn't it?  I admit I have mixed feelings about it.
           Every so often I go out to this little isolated area near my home where I can see the moon and the stars at night. I go to where the lights are few and the stars are plenty. Its one of my favorite things to do to nourish my soul. I guess you can say it is my church.I have even gotten good at finding satellites  in the sky. I go out on these nights and always wonder why more people do do this.Why don't more people see the beauty in our world? Its always so peaceful when I go because no one is usually there.  So when I hear all the hype on TV I just wonder where the hell all these people are any other day when the stars and moon are just as spectacular.  Tomorrow I am sure people will go back to their cell phones and always looking down and maybe a few will keep their head up and remember the eclipse and really appreciate that there is a whole universe beyond us....There is still so much we don't know...Peace and Love.

P.s. And if I hear that song Total Eclipse From the Heart one more time today I am gonna loose it...LOL..I really cant stand that song.

Finding Miracles...

          So its been awhile since I have posted anything. A busy work week, a busy home life makes it impossible to keep up with things I have really wanted to blog about. But last Saturday while I was at work I took a picture that I thought was just a typical photo. It wasn't until Sunday, the next day that I discovered something different about my picture. I was home relaxing and looking through my pics that I recently took. I zoomed in on this particular one and found an image in the clouds that is so remarkably  a resemblance to a man in the clouds with a staff. Not I thought it was just my eyes playing tricks but I did show it to other people and they saw it too. I know their are skeptics about signs fro God but something inside me feels such hope when I see this. Now I cant prove that it is anything but clouds, but my heart, soul, and faith tells me it is more than just clouds. Now I do not know how to photo shop anything, and other than messing around with lighting, there isn't much I do to pictures. I tried different lights and  the image remains the same. I find myself looking at this picture daily just to remind myself of my faith and give myself some motivation to live my best life. The  world is such a scary place in these times so it is nice to have some hope that I can  give myself on a daily basis. I do believe that the universe sends signs. It is just that most people these days are too focused on their own shit that they don't see the beauty in this world that is out there right now. I am not sure what this sign means other than I have been struggling with issues right now and maybe it was trying to tell me I am not alone. I love the thought that a higher source is leading me into the direction I need to go. I love the idea that someone is looking out for me. Yeah I know life isn't perfect and challenges and struggles are going to be a part of my life. But that's ok. One moment of a random day has made me see my problems in a whole new way. Even if this was just some clouds, the fact it can give me hope is a miraculous thing all by itself. So to all the skeptics that doubt miracles, well its your loss. Life has so much mystery to it and we as humans are not suppose to know everything. I have embarrassed the idea that we are still pretty clueless about so much. But I am open to the ideas of unbelievable things. It has taken me over a week to finally blog this mainly because I wanted to keep this moment to myself. But the more I see it the more I NEED to share it.

God Bless your day.... and may you find your own miracle. Pat attention the world around you because you will never know what may occur....Peace.
