When you do something noble and beautiful, don’t be disappointed if nobody notices – when you cannot tell anyone, though you may feel like shouting it from the rooftops :-) Think of the sun which rises in a beautiful spectacle every morning, while most of its audience still sleeps!
There will always a few who see. The beauty, the warmth, the glow lasts through the day… it spreads and envelops your whole world in light.
“It’s not the towering sail, but the unseen wind that moves the ship” … with a little help from an engine here and there ;)

How can we feel anything but rich when we are blessed with days that begin in such gold?
A three hour vacation – enough color and joy to last me much longer!
Business day trip to Florida. All business in the day, all fun in the evening.
“Space, the final frontier… the voyages of the Starship Enterprise… to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before”
I grew up listening to the familiar refrain of this opening sequence from Star Trek, and dreaming of how it would be to explore the far reaches of space…
And then on a bright morning in spring, finally the chance to see our own version of the “Starship Enterprise” – the US space shuttle on its final flight along the Manhattan skyline.
This one hasn’t ever been into space it seems :) … still felt absolutely exhilarating to watch – like the vastness of the universe out there is somehow within reach – all things possible.

Truly a week of “supers”… the moon and The Avengers movie! Saw one. Eagerly waiting to see the other.
