In the center, in the dark, do you see a night sky filled with stars? Do you see a sunset to the left?
Clouds all around? Do you see the central band of our Milky Way Galaxy running down the middle?
Do you see the ruins of an abandoned outpost on a hill? (The outpost is on Askold Island, Russia.)
Do you see a photographer with a headlamp contemplating surreal surroundings?
(The image is a panorama of 38 images taken last month and compiled into a Little Planet projection.)
Do you see a rugged path lined with steps? Or do you see the eye of a dragon?

⭐*Life is a continuous learning experience. Throughout our lives we keep rising and falling, picking up important lessons along the way. Some of these lessons come from experience, yet there are others that we learn watching others or reading in books for example. No matter how much we learn from the books there is a significant difference between practical and theoretical experience. Furthermore, there are many life lessons that we simply cannot learn until we face certain situations in our life. Most people would say that there are some lessons that come too late, catching us off-guard.

◆ Your life is now.
We keeping waiting for that amazing thing to happen in the future that will be the key to our happiness.But this is it. Your life is right now. Life continues to be a series of right nows. So learn to love your life right now, and you'll have an amazing life.
...
◆ Kindness matters.
Small expressions of kindness have an enormous positive impact on other people and on your own happiness.It doesn't take much to be kind. Practice it every day, in every situation, until it's your natural way of being.

◆ Age is a number.
When you're twenty you think fifty is old. When you're fifty, you feel thirty. When you're seventy, fifty looks like adolescence.Our chronological age doesn't have to define us. Don't allow a number to hold you back or prevent you from being the person you are inside.

◆ Grudges cause pain.
Holding on to a grudge is like injecting poison into your body every day. Forgive and let go. There's no other way.If your ego is preventing you from forgiving and letting something go, then tell your ego to take a hike. It's getting in the way of your happiness and well-being.

◆ You can't control others.
We want people to think and behave as we do. We want them to accommodate us and live the way we think they should live. We want to change them.But with awareness, we realize we can't and shouldn't try to control others. Instead, embrace differences and honor the uniqueness of the people in your life.

◆ You can handle it.
Whatever you think you can't handle, you actually can.You have more strength, more resilience, and more inner wisdom than you give yourself credit for. You'll get through it and survive — and maybe even be better for it.

◆ Gratitude multiplies happiness.
Consciously focusing on all you have rather than thinking about what you don't have is a far better use of brain power. Gratitude fosters positivity and well-being.

◆ Please yourself first.
Pleasing others for approval and acceptance might feel good in the short term, but eventually, you will lose yourself and feel resentful.Please yourself first and give to others based on conscious choice, not the desire for approval or feelings of guilt.

Jaclyn Moriarty is a award winning Australian and the best-selling author of novels for young adults including Feeling Sorry for Celia, The Year of Secret Assignments, and the Colors of Madeleine trilogy. Jaclyn grew up in Sydney, lived in England, Canada and the US, and now lives in Sydney again. She studied English at the University of Sydney, and law at Yale University and Cambridge University, where she was awarded a PhD....* I would like to recommend the adult debut novel from Jaclyn...*Gravity Is The Thing.

If you love the feel of the paper between your fingers as you read a great book, this is a true page turner, I always travel with a novel mostly for the plane going and returning home, this book did not make it to the trip home, had to finish it.
...
Gravity Is the Thing is a smart, unusual, wickedly funny novel about the search for happiness that will break your heart into a million pieces and put it back together, bigger and better than before.

Astonishingly wonderful and magical and moving and uplifting - Marian Keyes
