Rick F Guyon - Richard F Guyon - Light Pollution

It's sad that for many people around the world they will not be able to look at the night sky and see the stars like our ancestors did. It wasn't just one or two dots. They could see the bands of our galaxy. They could see other galaxies and other planets. How come we don't have that same view?

Light Pollution - For those of you that live in the city...the lights coming from the streetlights, homes, apartments you name it creates a halo almost that doesn't allow us to see the stars visibly. See in the city it never really is dark. When you look at a city hub from the outskirts of town you can see that glow in the sky..well the glow also prevents you from seeing the beauty of space and what we have so much yet to learn.

Rick F Guyon - Taking the time to just breath

Rick F Guyon - Soooooo today I woke up and admired the natural beauty of my home. Sometimes we get carried away with what we have to do. Whether it's the next research project, the next step, all the tasks and errands we have for the day....it's hard to just stop and breathe.

There is a saying I love. It says:

"Don't take life too seriously...It's not like you are going to make it out alive."

Makes you stop and chuckle. The only thing that comes to us all is death and taxes. So chill out...take 10 minutes out of your day to admire where you are and your life so far. Then when that is all done you can go back to your hectic day. I have a lot of work to do today but I know I am a lot more productive when I'm in a restful state of mind. - Richard F Guyon
