Life on Earth

It may be difficult to discern, but I feel there's a common thread to the following articles. Lately the universe has been kind enough to provide me with a wider perspective, so I thought I might share the view.

On reality:

An island in one virtual world recently sold for $30,000!

On the earth itself:

“Ample” evidence indicates that global warming is causing glaciers to retreat worldwide...

On the possibilities in an infinite universe:

Some planets in our galaxy could harbor an unexpected treasure: a thick layer of diamonds hiding under the surface...

On human relationships:

The president has been right on some big questions. Now, if he can get the little stuff right, he'll change the world.

On the human heart:

Confirming the wisdom of the poets and philosophers, doctors say the sudden death of a loved one really can cause a broken heart.

On life itself:

I am, among all men, most richly blessed.

Hi!!!
ya know I was trying to post on your last entry but I thought what the heck I'll just post on the next one. haha
I was truly touched by all the wonderful things you said about the people in chi, because I know its sooo true, they are wonderful! Anyway I just thought to mention that I only meet you for like 15 min then I think we went to lunch after. I felt as if I had known you for such a long time by the time the short car ride was over!!! It was remarkable to me, for I had only heard about you! It was very nice to meet you dear, and I hope to see you soon!

Hi Nassim! Thanks for the post! You know I felt the same way about you. It was like we didn't even need to talk. I have had some phenomenal good fortune to meet people like you through Lacey. I think it might have something to do with being Baha'i. Or maybe you all really do have the market cornered on cool. Either way we just clicked, and it makes me so happy. Hope you come back to read more and post comments. Have a great day!
