REFLECTIONS

Here are a few funny cartoons to enjoy: Here's a video with some advice I'll try to follow.  It seems practical.  I think the best thing is to limit my resolutions to a few important ones.  Too many will make it impossible to accomplish.

My brother Tony E-mailed this video to me.  For me the center green dot comes on and off while the yellow dots seem to disappear for a moment. I circled one of the yellow dots with my hand so it was the only one I could see. It did not disappear.  Neither did the other yellow dots when I tested them in turn.  The illusion is real and not a tampering with the video. Here it is: This link explains it better.  Do you see the dots? This optical illusion is bending our minds

Our grandson is quickly growing up.  I can't wait to see him for Christmas. This is a video from another day.

I want to share this photo I found today on the NASA site. Though the “earth rise” evokes the sunrise that we’re all familiar with here on Earth, you’d never see this type of image if you were actually standing on the moon (as opposed to orbiting around the moon, like the LRO). “Viewed from the lunar surface, the Earth never rises or sets,” Arizona State University’s Mark Robinson said in the NASA release. “Since the moon is tidally locked, Earth is always in the same spot above the horizon, varying only a small amount with the slight wobble of the moon.” From:  Gorgeous New NASA Image Shows Earth 'Rising' Over The Moon

Sad to say but my brother just found out he has a spinal stenosis.  He's suffering and will continue getting treatments. The narcotics help a little but he still finds it hard to move.  He told me he lost his balance and almost fell out his window.  Grabbing on to the bureau saved him. This is just in time for Christmas! I hope and pray he will be better soon.
