Keeping Balanced

According to this article, and maybe just common sense, if you have a constant stress in your mind and you take no action to avert its influence on your body, then, it will affect you accordingly. Considering the previously known mind body connection this should not be a surprise to anyone, but as with everyone else when do you find time for said action in your life?

Seems to be a constant battle of personal priorities. What do you want to do verses what is the best for you to do. Personally, I like to run, as, it is therapy for me. Of course, I come home tired with trashed legs and become seemingly useless for the rest of the day, but there always comes a time that if I don't re-energize the rest of my life suffers and in turn so does my running. I have noticed that getting up in the morning and working out just gets me going and ready for the day mentally and physically. I have tried Yoga and core workouts in the morning. It seems that yoga usually does the best job of balancing things out and stretching out my muscles and getting me into the right mindset. I know yoga sometimes seems like a new age thing and you have to be one of "those people" to practice it, but I continue to be a "closet yogi" and love the way I feel when I do it and I am sure others in my life notice as well.

4th of July Fireworks

So, I was sitting outside on the sidewalk, with friends, watching the town fireworks. My friends were deep in conversation, about how English theory could be applied to the burning display, as I sit there thinking about others points of view of the fireworks. As a person looks at the fireworks they see their version of things and it becomes two dimensional internally.

Although that is the perspective of a spectator in the crowd, I wonder what the perspective would be like from just below the fireworks where they are thrust into the air. Another perspective would be from the air, such as a plane. In the plane instance you could see the fireworks shooting up at you and then exploding. A person would probably see more than just one fireworks display. The next step is to the astronauts. I have heard stories that they can see California fires quite well, so, why not fireworks. In theory they would have 4 hours straight of fireworks going off, assuming they were in geosynchronous orbit. If there are aliens then they must think every 365 "Earth days" a certain part of this planet is playing host to a "massive" battle.
