A Fresh Start

The mind is everything. What you think, you become.

– The Buddha

And it’s not just “what” you think but “how” you think!

The power of positive thinking has a basis in physics. Since everything is energy and everything has a specific vibration

The happy, positive, successful people choose to see beauty and blessings in everything. They see the silver lining and the opportunities.

Life truly is what you make it.

Make it positive!

In this tough time we may have many unshared and untold feelings within us!

It may be unnamed too !! 

The initial period of Lockdown seems bit relaxing but it sucks now !

Right now I wish , overlooking a gushing river with clean water surrounded by tall pine trees and listening to sounds of the wind blowing through them breathing the fresh mountain air.

Missing those random vacations !

Yet !

we can find some happiness in little things  too ,

 A spectacular Sunset ! there a days when the clouds paint a stunning picture and they bring the best out of sunlight by ironically blocking the sun. Such moments make us forget time and everything else.

I love listening to songs while lying down on the bed with a calming soft light enough to make a calm mood . Takes me to a different world and helps to forget all the worries  and thoughts that might be crowding inside my mind . A way to freedom !

Sometimes, you just need to feel something. To awaken you from the blur of daily living. 

 This Sunday gave me some Spare time to relax myself and it feels great to share my thoughts through writing . 

I felt a need to write and I think this is the Perfect time to share it again . Sending you all good vibes !

The Oort Cloud

Our solar system has number of sources of asteroids , comets and other bodies. Here The  Oort cloud is one of those ! let's see in deep !

The Oort Cloud is a  Predicted shell of icy objects that lie beyond the Kuiper Belt, It is a spherical shell of cometary bodies that surrounds the sun .

It  is a giant spherical shell surrounding the rest of the solar system. It is like a big, thick-walled bubble made of icy pieces of  the sizes of mountains and sometimes larger. The Oort Cloud might contain billions, or even trillions, of objects in it .

"The Oort Cloud is the boundary of the Sun's gravitational influence, where orbiting objects can turn around and return closer to our Sun."

This Oort cloud are not capable of supporting life . But for all that it's big and thick ,scientists have never actually seen the Oort cloud Because it is  too far away but it's existence has many proofs .

It's beautiful !!

August's Night Sky

August 2020 is going to be a Treat for astronomy buff's. Step outside anytime this month just before the stroke of midnight and you’ll be able to see two bright naked-eye planets. 

August gives us a better view of Jupiter and Saturn in the evening sky. That’s because these two worlds remain bright and beautiful throughout August, yet appear higher up in the sky at nightfall. 

For the first time since the year 2000, Jupiter and Saturn are going to  show their great conjunction in 2020, Astronomers use the word conjunction to describe meetings of planets and other objects on our sky’s dome. Here we  use the term great conjunction to describe a meeting of the king planet Jupiter and golden Saturn. This August 2020 presents a fine time to start watching these worlds.

August 2020 presents 4 of the 5 bright solar system planets. Catch Jupiter and Saturn at nightfall and throughout most of the night, Mars between late evening and dawn, Venus in the dawn sky. Mercury from the morning to evening sky, and is pretty much lost in the solar glare.

Be curious ! Look up and Stay Amazed !

Moon : The Stupendous beauty of Sky

The brightest and largest object in our night sky, "The Moon " makes our Earth a more livable planet . The moon was a wraith-silver disc hanging in the lonely sky.

The month of August brings us a bunch of opportunities to see the Moon posing with the planets.

The New Moon brings a new cycle of life into flow. It is all about fresh energy, new power, birthing a new age. 

let's see how The Moon was made!

The most widely-accepted explanation is that the Moon was created when a rock the size of Mars slammed into Earth, shortly after the solar system began .

• The dark side of the moon is a myth  ! We can see only one face of the Moon from Earth. This is because the Moon rotates around on its own axis in exactly the same time it takes to orbit the Earth, meaning the same side is always facing the Earth. 
• The Moon is drifting away from our Earth.
  The Moon is moving approximately 3.8 cm away from our planet every year. It is estimated that it will continue to do so for around 50 billion years. By the time that happens, the Moon will be taking around 47 days to orbit the Earth instead of the current 27.3 days
  
• A person would weigh much less on the Moon.
  The Moon has much weaker gravity than Earth, due to its smaller mass, so you would weigh about one sixth (16.5%) of your weight on Earth.
  
• The Moon has no atmosphere.
  This means that the surface of the Moon is unprotected from cosmic rays, meteorites and solar winds, and has huge temperature variations. The lack of atmosphere means no sound can be heard on the Moon, and the sky always appears black . The Moon is a beautifully on it's own !
• " Bathed in the light of the sun, the moon was more beautiful than even the stars around."

Music : The Universal Language of Mankind

Music undoubtedly is one of the most important triumphs of human creativity , sometimes it moves us to tear ; it also makes  us to dance and jump with Joy , Every once in a while , it also gives us goosebumps in a way only an incredibly soulful piece of music can.

Music is everywhere around us ! In Evening time when i used to be in my terrace. I can hear so many sounds around me and I love it ! 

The chirping of Birds , whistling of trees, the music  from Mosque when they do prayer , the sound of church bell and the  sound of plane when it moves in the sky. 

When it rains,  the sound of rain drops in the umbrella .How Pleasant they are !

when the sun has completed it's day and falls over the eastern hills  think how beautiful it will be to listen to music at that time ! we can listen to music of Nature ! 

Listening to music is always a bliss

Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination

and life to everything.”

― Plato

Gold in the Sky

When we hear the word  "Star" Our mind would think of the twinkling dots of light in the Night sky. but there is a much closer and much brighter star which we can see in the Day time : The Sun 

It's important to pay homage to our dearest star , let's take a deep dive into the sun.

Sun is 4.6 billion years old. The diameter of the sun is extremly huge and It makes our earth look small , very small . In fact , 1.3 million earth could fit inside the sun .

The Sun is a Ball of gas made up mostly of Hydrogen.it has no solid surface unlike our earth . After all the Hydrogen in the sun has burned out , it will burn its helium for another  130 million years !  On that time Sun will expand to engulf mercury , venus and earth . If Humans are still alive at that time , they will need to find another Planet to survive ! 

The Sun is currently a Yellow dwarf , Towards the end of it's life it will become a red giant and then a white dwarf .

This is so interesting , Our weight on the sun would be 27 times weight on earth , For example , If you weigh 75 kilos on Earth , your weight would be 2,025 kilos on the sun . In space the Sun appears in white color not Yellow.

Without the Sun, there would be no life on earth , because Sun produces energy that supports all life through the process " Photosynthesis" . without the Sun , we literally would not be here.

" Ô, Sunlight! The most precious gold to be found on Earth".

Beauty Makes us Happy

We all Love to see beautiful things ! There are so many delightful things around us. The stupendous Natural  scenery,  Magnificent buldings , The clear Sky  etc.., Everything is adorable and we are blessed with a better vision to admire them .

Now , coming to the topic " Why beauty makes us happy ? " As per Science , we find things beautiful which are symmetrical ( In nature symmetry means the things which are in order) .

Many patterns that Human find beauty are born of Natural objects ! we love patterns of Snail shells , delicate Flowers , Natural objects such as waves and clouds .

We Human beings thinks , that the objects which are symmetric are safe and if something is not symmetric it may mean  danger to us .

" Being safe stimulates the Human remunaration system and makes our mind happy ". The beautiful environment has a positive impact on Human body.

Through years the concept of beauty has changed ."Beauty lies in our heart, that shines within us!" . It's upon us ! How we approach this beautiful world.

" Everything has its beauty, but not everyone sees it.” -  Confucius

The Magical Bow

We are in the end of Summer ! Birds are chirping and the sun is still shining . with the combination of sunshine and rain we can see one of Nature's greatest shows "Rainbows"! A rainbow is a fascinating colorful arch and a meteorological phenomenon . The majestic , multicolored bows of light appears after rain  like a magic ! it's not Magic , It's Physics.

Light we experience from the Sun is known as White light . White light is composed of all different colors that the human eye can see . These visible colors have unique wavelengths , from red to violet the wavelength goes from greatest to smallest .. ( VIBGYOR) !

We can't see rainbow during the rainstorm , because clouds block most of the light . The best time to see a rainbow is just after a rain has ended ! we need both water droplets and sunlight to see the rainbow. 

When the white light from the sun passes through the raindrops , the white light scatters into seven different colors! This is what we call "Reflection"

" Our earth is the only Planet in the solar system to create Rainbow ". How blessed we are ! 

This is how rainbows are formed." Magic revealed as science is disguise

Sweet School Memories

School  life gives ever green Moments and Pleasant Memories to many of us. As a child we like to grow up because at that age we feel burdened with home works and assignments . But now when we recall those instants it seems they are far better than current situation.

Here are some sweet school memories that made our childhood awesome !

Birthday celebrations were the  best one !  wearing casuals on our birthday , while the entire class singing ' Happy Birthday To You ' , we will have the  extreme   shyness and  try to keep our face calm with a smile . and then taking our best friend along with us to give chocolates to the teachers in the entire school was undoubtedly the memory we want to relive .

School times would be incomplete without celebrations like sports day , annual day etc.. it doesn't matter , whether we make our participations or not we will enjoy those moments incredibly .

Lunch Times !

 Eating lunch before break is some thing each one of us have done sometime. I and my crew used to eat fruits during class hours , we would gobble all of it and pretend as if we listening to the teacher very carefully by nodding and making serious facial expressions !

Wednesday whites  made all of us look different as we used to get bored of wearing the same uniform the entire week. and  carrying a bag weighing 110 kg was the worst of all , we used to exchange books from our friends once their Period was over and vice versa..

P.E.T  periods are bliss ! it would kickstart with a happy face , half of the period would go by discussing what to play . And Free period was the best thing ever.

Recollecting those Memories are really very colorful , being grown we have many advantages but still school time is the best and incomparable.
