Dark Sky
what was the flash of light in the dark sky?
I was on a dark beach in Victoria two nights ago when suddenly the beach lit up. We looked up to see a flashing light in the sky. Was this a shooting star? I was fortunate to catch another two stars fall the same night but the third was something i have never witnessed before. Does this mean u make a wish? 
I have witnessed one meteor at nighttime that was bright enough and lasted long enough for me to see it by accident, realise what it was, get the binoculars up to my eyes, and watch it for several seconds before it disintegrated. It's quite something. Most are like the others you saw.
Meteors do sometimes do what you describe for a few seconds. In 2001 there was one in the north-eastern US that was visible for 5 seconds in the late afternoon. But it's rare.
Don't want to rain on your parade (well, you don't need me to; you're in Victoria), but could it have been a flare?
How would you describe your home office? Is it a pleasant place that welcomes you and helps you work more efficiently everyday? Or, is it cluttered, dark and just a place you sit to get work done?
Imagine starting each morning in a workspace that is calm, clean and gives you the feeling that all is well and abundance is everywhere. Any workspace can be transformed into a comfortable, motivating place to grow your business. It takes a little work, but with a few changes, you can make the commitment to love your life and love your work.
Try these 9 simple ideas to enhance your workspace and inspire your creativity:
1. Clean your workspace. A cluttered room blocks creativity and slows your energy. Spend a day cleaning and throwing away no longer needed items. Be simple. You'll feel happier.
2. Move your desk in front of the window. Why not give yourself the opportunity to see blue sky, leaves blowing in the wind, fluffy clouds while you type away at your laptop? Open the window for fresh air.
3. Place some plants on your windowsill or on a table near the window. Plants clear the air and give us the gift of fresh oxygen. Good for your brain! Find plants like a Lucky Bamboo or Money Tree at your local supermarket or home store.
4. Paint your work area walls. This will require a little more work but the payoff is well worth it. Choose a color that is soothing and peaceful like a dusty blue. It will give you the feel of blue sky and act as a calming background to all your paperwork and electronics.
5. Paint old furniture and file cabinets black or gray. This will create a neutral background for your work. The less distractions as you work, the easier you can complete tasks. I found two file cabinets in a "scratch and dent" sale and painted them semi-gloss enamel black along with two black bookshelves. They look clean and fresh against the soft blue walls.
6. Surround yourself with inspirational words. Either Google or use the new search engine, Bing, to find motivational quotes. Choose a few, type them up with fonts that please you and print them. Cut them out and place on your bulletin board or in front of your workspace.
7. Create a Vision Board. You know what this is. Take one of your bulletin boards or a 24 x 36 cardboard or foam board and fill it with images that motivate you. Find pictures of money, beautiful abundant nature, things that you would like to have such as a car, or new home. Just search on Bing.com for "money images" and you'll be surprised how many pictures come up. Just click and print. Put a couple of your inspirational quotes on the board and a picture of you, too. You're all set. Just glancing at it once in a while will lift your energy.
8. Background sounds. Some people find music a distraction, while others need it to block out noise or keep their brain busy while doing certain tasks. Find the perfect music to keep you focused, either soft nature sounds, classical, or alpha waves that can help you tap into your creativity. Whatever keeps you focused.
9. Favorite objects. Choose only a few. Everyone's got some little things around that bring a smile or spark a memory. Choose three or four items that make you feel happy. A few pictures of happy moments and people you love will remind you why you are working. Remember, less is more. So, organize these items on a shelf or on your desk without taking up too much space.
In a visually well-organized home office, you can work in peace and feel energetic and happy as you work. You'll think more clearly and get a lot more work accomplished. Create a workspace that inspires the best in you.

The Passion of the Christ (Score) $3.19 Mel Gibson staked $30 million and his superstar reputation on this painstakingly bloody interpretation of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, all the while dodging charges of anti-semitism and fostering excruciating cinematic gore at the expense of Christ's message (a notion that also begs some uncomfortable questions about this version's S&M undertones). But because the film's dialog p... |
