April 22nd will of course be the next Earth Day, so stop and think for a moment about just how fragile our home world actually is. Many people prophesy so-called doomsday scenarios approaching, but in reality the only absolutely certain end of the world will happen when our sun reaches the end of life as a star.

Whether or not anything resembling humanity will be there at the end – 4-5 billion years time – is debatable, but the end will indeed be fiery, because our sun, as a so-called main sequence star burns hydrogen at the core, it to make the heavier element helium and generating energy, providing the Earth with the necessary energy for life to thrive, as it has for the last 5 billion years or so.

As, toward the end, it starts to run out of hydrogen, the rate of fusion reactions will start to slow, creating less of the outward radiative pressure that counters countering the massive gravitational forces of the sun. This will make the core shrink, condensing helium atoms, which will eventually start to fuse, creating heavier elements.

Vast amounts of energy get generated at this point, causing the star involved radically heat up and expand, becoming a so-called Red Giant many times the original size, so much so that, in the case of our own sun, the expansion will swallow Mercury, Venus and, possibly even the Earth, though all life, atmosphere and oceans will have been vaporized long before that.

I can appreciate that this seems pretty horrific, but in all honesty, this is all just the natural life cycle of a star like the sun, whose energy, having helped life evolve and nurtured it, will eventually destroy the inner solar system, including whatever remains on Earth at the time.

It is perhaps for that reason that we ought to really think about the earth we inhabit, and the damage out thoughtless actions as a species have been inflicting upon it for several centuries now. that untold catastrophic climate changes have occurred during the unimaginable aeons of earth history, the ones that truly concern us should be those of the here and now.

We still have the ability to make societal changes world-wide that will counter all the negatives of the past – with universal support and co-operation – but it is imperative that we genuinely grasp the nettle hard before the consequences of earlier reckless human behaviour become a runaway force that we are helpless to counter.

Think about these things on Earth Day, as you settle to enjoy your breakfast. That we are here at all is an accident of circumstance, the planet on which our species evolved having luckily been in just the right place to be an eventual breeding ground for life, but the earth is so finely balanced, in all respects, that our thoughtlessness could well provide that shove that will ruin the ecological status quo, driving all life on earth to the brink.

Earth Day should be about celebrating the natural splendour that is all around us, and helping to maintain the correct balance of nature by taking far more care about what we do and how we do it.  Our planet is all we have as a home – until inter-galaxial space travel becomes a reality, if ever – so we simply have to take better care of it, or we might ourselves be just as doomed as the planet itself, though probaly surviving nowhere near as long.

Does the media help turn entertainer’s from good to bad? It is quite possible that all the negative attention that the media exposes could make a person go off the deep end. They are looking for acceptance and love, which in many cases none of that happens. Some are unable to function without something to hold on to. They travel from place to place with lonely feeling bottled up inside them and their bodies begin to wear down. They become weak and look for something that will kill the pain. We have a habit to think that  entertainer’s who live in their lavish homes have no worries. This is far from the truth they have worries alright. They have to pay Uncle Sam a whole lot of money and in many cases their money is stolen from them. Again there is no excuse for the destructive behavior but there may be more clarity  as to why they become more prone to such behavior. We need to be more understanding and create positive environments for entertainers. There’s a price for fame and popularity.

Would you want people around you all the time who do nothing but bark at you with their demands? They have to put so much time and effort in every endeavour that their exposed to. The media want allow them to rest and the world can place so much judgement that, some can’t deal with it. Many times they never let go of the past and bring it in their music or on screen. The world just needs to be more understanding and give them some space. We all need space from time to time and surely hate when we are judged. We have lost many and we should try and help save lives. They contribute so much and deserve so much more than they have been getting. Love is always better than hate. Love and you’ll find better results.

The details of your phyiscalities are of no importance nor is physical romance there will be no exchange of bodily fluids. You require a certain need I feel you need to be filled with something wonderful, your depth will take time to reach in the corridors of the heart and soul. For  You yearn for more and believe me more is available but first you must be sure if you want to be dated?

I want this date to be the beginning for you, it requires a very personal commitment.The truth is that it is a matter of importance  a date that will be the beginning of the  resurrection of your spirit, the return of knowledge of your true beauty. Important because it is meant to put you in the here and now Do you still want to be dated?  Then whatever date it is right now consider this your date, the beginning of the search for your personal truth and the truth of Oneness. For for this is the date you will choose to do the work and give spirit a chance to see and the heart time to feel.  This the date  when the revelation begins when you start to see who you truly are no matter what the reflection Do you still want a date? A date you will remember and tell others about?

check out my ninty-ninth article …celebration

Paul’s sister, Kim (Sarah Jessica Parker), is having trouble with her teenage daughter Hailey (Abigail Breslin), who wants to spend New Year’s Eve with her friends and her boyfriend Seth (Jake T. Austin) in Times Square. Paul’s friend, comic book illustrator Randy (Ashton Kutcher), who hates New Year’s Eve after his girlfriend left him on a date, gets stuck in an elevator with Elise (Lea Michele), an aspiring singer who will be providing back-up for musician Jensen (Jon Bon Jovi) in his show at the Ahern Records ball, where he rekindles his feelings for his ex-girlfriend, Laura (Katherine Heigl).

At a nearby hospital, Stan Harris (Robert De Niro), a man in the final stages of cancer who refuses chemotherapy and who only wishes to see the ball drop one last time, is kept company by Nurse Aimee (Halle Berry) and Nurse Mindy (Alyssa Milano) after his doctor (Cary Elwes) reveals he will not last much longer. In the same hospital, a young couple, Griffin (Seth Meyers) and Tess (Jessica Biel), about to have their first child, competes with another couple, James (Til Schweiger) and Grace (Sarah Paulson), for a bonus offered for the family of the first child born in the new year. Elsewhere, Sam (Josh Duhamel), a businessman from Ahern Records, attempts to arrive at the Ahern Records Ball, where he is to deliver an important speech, after his car malfunctions on the other side of New York, all while wondering if he should attend a meeting with a mysterious woman he met and fell in love with on the previous New Year’s Eve.

As midnight approaches, one of the billboard lights of the Times Square panel malfunctions, jamming the ball and forcing Claire to call Kominsky (Hector Elizondo), an electrician the company had fired a few weeks prior. Kominsky repairs the ball seconds before midnight, and, in gratitude, Claire leaves him in charge of the operation, and rushes to see the ball drop with her father, Stan. Meanwhile, Nurse Aimee has a video conference with her husband (Common), a soldier serving in Afghanistan.

Paul helps Ingrid complete all the items on her list, and she gives him the tickets. Meanwhile, Randy and Elise bond, and, as they are about to kiss, the elevator is repaired and Elise rushes to Jensen’s show. Randy notices she forgot her rubber band and rushes to give it to her. At the Ball, Jensen leaves midway during the show and apologizes to Laura, who accepts him back and leaves with the approval of her assistant, Sous Chef Ava (Sofia Vergara). With Jensen gone, Elise is called to replace him and attracts the attention of the crowd. She kisses Randy, and they start a romantic relationship.

Griffin and Tess have their baby and, although it is born first, they allow James and Grace to have the bonus after discovering they actually have three children. Meanwhile, after being forbidden from attending the celebration, Hailey runs away to Times Square, where she sees Seth being kissed by another girl. Heartbroken, she meets and is comforted by her mother. Seth finds them and apologizes, claiming the girl stole a kiss from him. Hailey forgives him and Seth kisses her. Her mother allows her to go to an after-party. Kim then goes to a restaurant to meet Sam, who had succeeded in delivering his speech. She is the mysterious woman he met one year prior, and they finally discover each other’s names.

Afraid to fail? All serious daring begins from within yourself. Remember that when the night is dark you can see the stars.

So, you want to change the world? Fine! But how can you do that if you yourself have not changed yourself for the better? In our search for the ideal, we climb the ladder of perfection, and how many times have we fallen back? God does not care about reputation. He looks at your scars, your character, because to Him reputation is nothing; character is everything.

Your self-concept may not reflect reality. Even if, for example, your family considers you to be a success, you still think that you have not done enough to measure to their expectations. When this happens it is important that you have the moral support of your family and friends to assure and re-assure you that you have done exceedingly well. You are not an island. The more recognition and assurance you get from them, the more you achieve agreement between your self-concept versus idealism. Rejection would spell confusion and frustration.

In other words, learn to accept yourself and to face challenges. The greatest delight in life is to try to do what people say you cannot do. Success is never illusory. Use your brain. ### 

Staring into mine while I lay mesmerized

When you held me in your arms,

I wanted nothing more than to stay with you forever

And now every time I look at you

I just want to smile just because I can

There’s a feeling that’s come over me.

We’ve been torn from the other

But no matter the distance,

My love hasn’t changed for you

There’s nothing I wouldn’t do
To have just one more chance
To look into your eyes and see you like I did before

And baby I will wait for you

Always and forever isn’t gonna end today

And I don’t know if you knew but

You’re the only one that leaves me breathless

And I know I haven’t been around for a while

 But that doesn’t mean I stopped loving you

Or that I ever will

I’m not gonna hide from my feelings

I’m gonna hold on to what you gave me

I know that you never failed to see what was in these stars

And I’m not talking about the ones in the sky

I know this isn’t the end

We haven’t had our happy ending yet

You’re the one I want to be with baby

But if you want me to let go,

I love you enough to do that for you

There’s nothing I wouldn’t do
To have just one more chance
To look into your eyes and see you like I did before

Always and forever can wait for us

Baby did you know that you leave me breathless

Some Astronomers or scientist believes that there is always a possibility that we are not alone in this Universe. Our Universe is so vast, that one may not be able to travel to other galaxies, because of their long-distance and time period. However, the thing is that, many peoples has shown proof of Aliens and UFOs, but all that things are not real. Even, there is no proof of Aliens that are caught by the peoples. But However, some peoples claimed, that they have seen such those things that don’t belong to earth or some peoples being caught by the aliens.

Some astronomers or scientists have shown some of the latest evidence about the Aliens base on the MOON. Some sort of fast moving light traveling along the side of the moon, considered as the Alien UFO. Huge towers and buildings have also been seen on the MOON through the telescope by some peoples.

            This essay served no true purpose to me. I mean, who cares how famous a person is and what they did to get their fame. All that really matters is that they are there. Sure it’s easy to get fame now but why knock a person for it? They obviously had what it takes to get that fame for at least a short amount of time. That should give people with big dreams even more hope to want to pursue their dreams. At least now they know they stand a chance. I don’t think Daum really made her purpose clear when she wrote this essay.
