Bathe In The Splendor

 A L O H A From Honolulu!
Nothing exists except atoms
and empty space;
everything else is opinion.
  Democritus






You have no need 
to go anywhere. 
Journey into yourself. 
Enter a mine of rubies 
and bathe 
in the splendor 
of your own light. 
    Rumi 











The best way to persuade
people is with your ears-
-by listening to them.
     Dean Rusk











Forever is composed
of nows.
    Emily Dickinson










When life is sweet,
say thank you
and celebrate.
When life is bitter,
say thank you and grow.  
                                 Shauna Niequist

I think Pixie would rather nap a few more hours.

Love that last quote about the sweet and the bitter. Pixie is telling us that it is time to grow (gratefully)!

I was going to let Democritus know that atoms are mostly empty space. So I look it up to verify that premise. Nope, not on the quantum level. On the quantum level, there is no empty space anywhere.

Gorgeous shot of Pixie.
Listening is a gift (and very tiring when done properly).

Thanks dear T.

Dang Mike! You're right!
"Atoms are not mostly empty space because there is no such thing as purely empty space. Rather, space is filled with a wide variety of particles and fields. ... It's true that a large percentage of the atom's mass is concentrated in its tiny nucleus, but that does not imply that the rest of the atom is empty.Jan 12, 2013
